Him
OLEG Kagan was born in 1984 in Kyiv, Ukraine, immigrated to Los Angeles in 1990 and has lived there ever since. He is a writer, librarian, freelance computer consultant, and foil to Ray the Communist Cat. Oleg received a B.A. in English and an M.L.I.S. (Masters of Library and Information Science) from UCLA in 2007 and 2009, respectively. Among other things, Oleg enjoys reading, writing, theatre, hiking, and listening to music of all genres. He is currently an Adult Services Librarian and Volunteer Coordinator for the County of Los Angeles Public Library (West Hollywood Branch). If you like, you can follow Oleg on Twitter and Goodreads.
Oleg was involved in orchestrating both the Short Story Dog Contest and the 5A Story Contest. While in graduate school, he also did an independent study project called Visions of Hypertext on hypertext systems leading up to the world wide web. And while we’re on out-of-the-way writings, here are two guests posts Oleg has written at other blogs: You do all that?: Considering Library Job Titles at the Radical Patron blog, and The Worst Practices in Promoting Library Programs at Will Unwound.
