The Now: February 3, 2021

Here are the projects that have my attention this week.
​

• Putting together a reading list and learning resources guide for the African-American Read-In.
• Marketing and managing our upcoming Faculty Webinar Series. Each session will share information about a specific library database. If I get one, non-library attendee during the live sessions, I will be happy. I spent over three hours individually emailing all of our faculty this week. I did see a spike in registrants after that but it was A LOT of tiring work. At least I could use templates and listen to podcasts.
• Working through the archives of the Planet Money podcast. I had listened to most of this show before I removed it during the OMGIHAVEABABYNOW purge. I missed it, so I put it back. I'm a podcast completionist so I've listening and relistening to all the old episodes that are in my feed. Some of the episodes that really delight me will show up in the The Weekly Wrap on Sundays.
• One of my quarantine projects was digitizing mementos, photo albums, and journals. I have two journals and a stack of The Kid's new artwork left. Before I get to those final items, I'm editing some images from the last batch of bullet journal digitization. It's just cropping and adjustments but it takes a little while. At least I can do it while binging The Office.
