Username refers to the following line from Shakespear's The Tempest:
"Me, poor man, my library was dukedom large enough."
The line is pronounced by Prospero, the rightful Duke of Milan, who has been usurped of his throne and robbed of all his wealth by his brother Antonio; yet the knowledge contained in his books is solace enough to him.
