This afternoon I met for two hours with the most amazing dental hygiene student. Mostly, I just listened to her think aloud about the articles and other sources she had found for her lit review and we talked about her life and her job and her aspirations. She is so thoughtful, principled, driven, and insightful. She is operating way, way above the dental hygienist level. I told her to become a dentist and I think she was already considering it, so maybe she will. My students are awesome.

She benefits as a student, passes on good things for future students at her alma mater, and her current employer gets great ideas for their spaces.

I just CRUSHED my presentation at work. I've been feeling a little less than stellar and like an awful librarian of late, but maybe this is the start of some new life. And if I can't do the work that I'd like to do here, then I'll just take myself on elsewhere.

You know, the managers among us like to grumble "sometimes the problem is the employee" when we're frustrated, but the converse is true far more often, in my experience: Sometimes the problem is the workplace. If you can't be awesome there, and you can't find a way to make the place be awesome, find somewhere else to be awesome. :)

I've been wringing my hands and rocking back and forth thinking, "What can I do, what can I do?" with "One Day More" from Les Miz playing in the background for too long.

Guys, don't spend too much time talking and worrying about FF going boom because of the takeover -- that's what we did in the Life Scientists room, which is now basically dead. Self-fulfilling prophecy, and FF is still here doing fine. I really, really wish we hadn't done that (I was one of the main culprits, predicting immediate boomage).

note to all babybrarians: Document what you are doing throughout your career as a service to yourself. Don't think of it as a yearly thing admin needs for their records. Take detailed notes so you can reconstruct the different projects you were involved with in a clear concise manner. Trust me this will come in handy.

We do quarterly reports here. Makes annual report writing a whole hell of a lot easier and lets me highlight some of the little stuff. These are internal only--they don't go beyond my dept

Huh - I've done monthly reports at both my library jobs - and it makes annual reports REALLY easy - just grab the highlights from each month... That makes keeping track of progress through projects and all really easy as well.

Also, Do this with your vacations - esp. the vacations which are similar. I cannot remember when we went to VT vs. NH though I do at least remember the towns in which we stayed. I can also remember the trip we took from South-Central PA to Lower-Middle VT... because we went from PA to Cleveland to visit with friends to Toronto to attend a wedding to VT... "because Toronto is on the way to VT if you fold the map just right, and Cleveland is on the way to Toronto."

Best advice I ever got regarding reviews: Start a file, right now, and drop copies of everything into it. Flyers, programs, handouts, agendas, letters of appointment, thank you notes, whatever. I actually have 3 - one paper, one email, and one dropbox. Saves a HUGE amount of time--it's scary the number of times I said "oh, I forgot I attended that" while prepping for my last review.

Thanks for sharing! I can definitely relate. I had my info lit self-confidence come crashing down when trying to plan "library"/info lit sessions for school kids in Guatemala.

Must admit, I love having a subsidiary screen (sort of like dual monitors but on the cheap--a 7-yr-old 19" Sony as primary display, the 15" 5-yr-old Gateway notebook as secondary display). If I was still working, you know, for $, I'd sure try to have two good-size displays. (Andy: With Windows built-in support, you shouldn't really be "switching screens"--you point where needed, drag as needed, etc.)

How do you manage them re: Walt's aside? Switch back and forth, use as one big one? I need to have a setup in mind before I suggest another monitor. IT guys have them, but I'd like one for web updates - it would save a LOT of Alt-Tab...
- Louise "Weezy" Alcorn
Walt: I'm just abusing the term "switching screens" to mean "turn my neck". With one giant monitor, I don't feel like I'm attending a tennis match when I'm glancing back and forth between the two.
- Andy
Andy: That makes sense. Louise: It's effectively one big display, except that no single application's main window can use both displays. (But, for example, Excel could be on one screen and find/replace popups could be on the other, or palettes for Paint.Net, or...)
- Walt Crawford
that sounds...heavenly. *sigh* It's time to bake the IT dept some more cookies...
- Louise "Weezy" Alcorn
When I've been working from one spreadsheet, preparing graphs in another instance of Excel, and writing a chapter that includes the graphs, it's been more than heavenly: It probably doubles my effectiveness. Never had dual displays at work; if I ever went back to work again, I'd insist on them.

Grading is a PITA without two screens. With them, the gradebook is up on one screen, the stuff I'm grading on the other, easy-peasy.

And we talked about the controversy surrounding the pronunciation of “libguide” (they thought I was kidding!), and also that Korean video game where you have to move your body vigorously to wishy washy away all the soap on screen, as well as how funny it is that there is a rat on the cover of the O’Reilly book for learning Python.

Absolutely. I explain that I find it essential to keep these three ideas in mind when searching the literature: 1. The computer (loosely defined, could be database/catalog/whatnot) does not know what I mean. 2. I, also, do not know what I mean (I don't know the right terminology, especially when I'm starting something new). 3. People, however, do know what I mean...

Interesting idea given to me for a user.. snap a reference say from a book or article reference list with a mobile library app..whichOCRs it..and here's the hard part, parses the reference regardless of style and then passes it to either article level searcher like Summon/GS and/or citation linker grabs the full text and emails the pdf to the user.

The user in particular notes certain chemistry styles dont have article titles, just journal titles and volumes which are highly abbreviated..and you can't just toss it into google scholar etc...

the Ashman Anime Club has been around for over a decade. I don't know who's running it now, but I know Margie Saaf-Navarre used to be, and can ask around to find out if you'd like. Failing that, http://www.madisonpubliclibrary.org/special... might give you some useful ideas.
