Titanic Timeline
Hard to believe we're a mere 8 years to the centennial. By the way, the first link allows you to browse by occupation of the pasenger or crew, which is how I know that there were several people (in addition to students) who had 'book' or 'writing' related occupations...

Library Steward: Thomas Kelland, 21 years old, crewman, died in sinking.
Journalist: Sleiman Attala, 27 years old, Ottawa, 3rd class passenger, died in sinking.
