And a few conference papers that look particularly enticing, especially as I grapple with some of the Schumpterian assumptions in the models:
Contents of Watt's Library

James Watt was a bit of a bibliophile. His library was contained in the garret workshop at his home in Heathfield, Birmingham. Through a long series of events --detailed by the the Science Museum's page on The Watt Collection-- became public property. The contents of the library are now stored at the Science Museum and are collected together under the very handy subject heading: "Watt Collection."

I wanted to pull together the contents in one place for quick access. The task ended up being more formidable than anticipated due to some inconsistancy in the formatting of MARC records. Unfortunately, my MILS is too far behind me to be of any real value. Cataloguing was never my strong suit anyway.
