- About Me:
- Hello! My name is Aaron, and I'm a librarian at California State University, Chico.
Part of my work as a librarian revolves around the global flow of information -- in other words how people from different countries and cultural backgrounds share information with each other. In particular I look at how blogs and social networking services differ by country, and how people in other countries use these services smiliarly or differently than people in the U.S. You can read about these international characteristics of blogs and social networks on a blog I maintain here:

I would love to have your thoughts as comments on my blog :)
Beyond that, I love getting out and staying active, hanging out with my friends, music and movies, and also dancing. I can tango, and one of my friends wants me to learn ballroom so she and I can go out dancing together :)
- Work:
- Reference/Instruction librarian at California State University, Chico
- My interests in Libraries:
- I examine the global flow of information -- how people from different cultural backgrounds think about, use, and share information. I am particularly interested in the nexus between globalization and web 2.0 applications. My current research examines Internet proliferation in Chile and Brazil, and also copyright regimes in the U.S. and the European Union.
