Librarians & Curators: December 2007 Archives
One of the main tributary streams that flows into the broad, sweeping
river of Caledon Culture, is the literary genre, visual aesthetic, and
technogeekistologickal sensibility of Steampunk. The Caledon library
has, these last some several months, been diligently researching and
preparing the materials for a collection dedicated to this beloved and
absorbing subject.
Curators Alice Burgess and Turing Weyland have sought out works and references, both authoritative and extraordinary, to inform, enlighten, and delight the serious seeker after knowledge and the debonair dilettante alike. One fruit of their labours, a list of reference links on this topic, is to be seen in the Caledon Library Reading Room, in VictoriaCity, under the Direction of Reference Curator Miss Teofila Matova. Further indications of this immense undertaking may be seen, here, on Mr Weyland's Page-Flake, Chock full o' Steam. Visitors to Caledon may look to see the collection installed on the 4th floor of the Whitehorn Library, in Caledon VictoriaCity, early in the coming year.
In the meantime, we are proud to present the Aetheric Musings upon all things Boiler-Powered, Intricately-Cogged, Brass-Plated, Diverse, and Appealingly Over-Engineered , of Curator Turing Weyland: The Steampunk Lexicon
