The Now: April 12, 2023

I thought my calendar would be easing up for the semester. We're a month away from graduation and only two weeks from finals. Generally, that means I'm done with classes for the semester. Not this semester. I've got one more class, a demo for the local public library, and a slew of meetings. It really is the truth that adulting is just saying, "In a month or two things will ease up and I can catch up."... and then they never do.

Here's what I'm working on:​
  1. Research Assignment Design: We've got two things going at once. We're doing a second, targeted pass of coding AND we're reviewing past coded excerpts to make sure things were tagged correctly. We're going on a bit of a binge - meeting three times a week when we can - in order to get as much of this done as possible before the summer break. Also, we have to start thinking about our presentation at the TILC conference in June. Good thing we can probably use a presentation at our local consortial conference as a dry run.
  2. Personal Archiving Workshop: The last library instruction course I get to teach this semester is one I am very much excited about. This semester, a professor is teaching an entire, upper-level course on global archives. She asked me to come in to talk about personal archiving. I'm designing this session from the ground up and plan to cover both digital and physical materials. I've got a complete outline and list of pictures I need to take of my own materials. Next up is slides and notes. I can't wait to see what sort of questions I get in this session. I also think I am going to turn this into a webinar. It would be great summer content.
  3. Life Maintenance: The middle of the month is when I try to tackle some of my regular monthly projects. Cleaning out my email files, scanning, filing, shredding, cleaning my makeup brushes - you know, the fun stuff.
