The Now: September 21, 2022

You know how, when you get a knot in a muscle, it just bugs you until it suddenly lets go and you can move again? That's what my brain feels like with all of my tasks right now. I just need one or two things to finish up so that I can get the knot out of my brain.

This is what I'm working on.

WORK
  • Research Assignment Design: I have two more interviews to code from scratch. Then I'm going to give everything a once over to see if I missed anything. The code book is getting easier to work with. I think it's still a bit big, but we can clean it up in iteration two. 
  • Presentations and Publications: I haven't worked on anything this week but I am brainstorming for an idea to submit to speak at Computers in Libraries 2023.
  • Reference and Instruction: Later today, I am going to do my first session of roving reference. This is a new thing so we're just going to feel it out this semester to see if it's worth keeping. I just hope to reach three people during each two hour session. We've also seen an increase in numbers of questions from outside our University. Trying to track down what's causing that. It's totally fine, I'm just curious. Last night, I got a question from a student in Botswana about something our University doesn't teach.
  • Outreach: Two events down, one event to go. I got smart and started putting a newsletter sign up sheet on the table for these events. 
  • Administration: Not a lot beyond the typical email management going on here.

PERSONAL
  • Estate Planning: Still nothing.
  • Email Newsletter: I've taken a bit of a break from strategic planning, but I think I may look into more cross-promotions soon.
  • Home Projects: Scoping out a place to possibly wrangle plastic for recycling via our grocery store drop-off. Our building can handle most things but bags/warps/films are not one of them. I would love to be able to recycle that via the store but we need a place to collect things.
  • Hobbies: Got down to Feedly and Inbox Zero so I'm hoping this frees up some time for hobbies.
