Robert Wolfe started his library career in The Houghton Library as a stacks page, retrieving and reshelving early and rare printed books and manuscripts. Naturally, he fell in love with the printed word and sought to spend his entire career engaged in its care. After graduation he worked as an assistant bibliographer for the library and for a rare book dealer. He received his MLIS from Simmons College where he discovered electronic and digital resources. While in library school he fell in with the dot com crowd, having the good fortune to practice creating metadata (LOM and IMS-CP) for an educational publisher while still in school. Naturally, he was laid off the same month that he received his degree. He worked at Genzyme, managing document delivery services for Infotrieve while he waited for an opportunity as perfect as the Metadata Services Unit in the MIT Libraries.
