Since I had the brainstorm last week to make myself available to friends and family as their own personal reference librarian, I have had several interesting questions ranging from, "What would be the proper nickname for St. Aloysius Gonzaga?" to "What is the derivation of the word God, when did we start using that name/term?"

It's been a fun week as a result. I am learning even more quickly about sources and, frankly, it's fascinating to find out what the people I know are thinking about. It's a great rush to actually be able to answer a question--everyone is so grateful. This is a nice side benefit for me.
