This is where every Tech Services person in the room takes umbrage at my suggestion that libraries aren’t efficient.
And we’ve already slid into astrology. Wonder if I can go to the restroom and just not come back a la Summer School.
1 hour into leadership course and I’m pretty sure culture eats leadership for breakfast.
Leadership Assessment instructor seems to believe this is an opportunity to talk about herself. A lot.
Am I right thinking that NSF, NIH, and NEH set no time requirement regarding length of management of research data? Weird.
I now officially hate every Linux Desktop Environment. Nice job, Gnome Team!
I just made my first screencast. I'm going to be a real librarian someday! @btuttle would be so proud!
College Station, Texas, is in the middle of nowhere. That is all.
Email requesting reponse if meeting time DOESN'T work for recipients >> many positive responses >> direct email re: my non response. Sigh.
I'm looking for examples of digital repository collection policies. URLs appreciated!
RT @kaythaney: If the code's not good enough to be made public, why is it good enough to base publications on? http://bytesizebio.net/index... (HT @figshare)
I’m suspicious that faculty won’t be so excited to share lounge and research commons areas with everyone who happens in.
Visioning with faculty and students- Library as “pilot” space. Also, everyone wants a pub. Beer does smooth social friction, right?
Faculty A thinks library should authenticate, rank, and credential faculty rather than professional societies. General freak out ensues.
Ironic that faculty desire search history and borrowing record sharing to aid resource discovery. I wonder how long that would last
Discovered I’m not comfortable with faculty assertion that repository inclusion authenticates scholarly work.
At Visioning Workshop. “Small data has a way of becoming big data over time.”
Was thinking Symplectic Elements was pretty great until I just discovered it's coming out of my budget. So long Access in Montreal!
Arch Wiki: "ReiserFS (V3) is not being actively developed at this time." Yeah, look for a new release in 15 years to life.
Power outage last night. fsck on 4X2TB volumes takes forever. Time for a UPS. Glad for weekly refreshed offsite backups at work.
RT @gknauss: Given that God has ignored slavery and starvation and torture, I sorta doubt that gay marriage will be the thing to finally set Him off.
I love you, Guido van Rossum. #python
Why doesn't Retraction Watch have a machine-readable API so I can never have to respond to that question again?
Actual email summary: Can you help with NSF Data Management Plan? Need it by tomorrow.
Finally configured VPN server on work desktop to service my iPhone. PPTP isn't very secure, but it''s easy to setup and free.
Working in a place where no one can be terminated is pretty awful for people who aren't pretty awful.
It's always interesting to explore the role of repository services in relation to University Archives.
We seem to be missing the point that many DH projects rely on ephemeral web services (Google Maps, Yahoo Pipes, etc). Flattening wordpress?!
I clearly still don't understand what University Archives is and what their collection policies are.
Campus IT mass killing of student sites, some of which are cited in papers and high-profile faculty work.
