Final Exercise

I’ve been working on this stuff for months and yet I still ran it down to the wire when it came to writing about the things I’d been doing.

Sure I have excuses — two demanding blogs, two more demanding children, sickness and chores . . .and, oh yes, a full time job so that all my demanding children can eat.

Mostly I enjoyed doing the things — less than enjoyed writing about it. I think I felt like this was being turned in for a grade or something. The nice thing is that I’ve come away with a number of tools that I’ll be using and exploring for my blogs and my work. I also have a new perspective on why a silly little associate librarian is “branding” himself. And its not just vanity.

Not entirely.

Dr. Schultz said so . . . honest.

This was a wonderful program for getting me to stretch my web 2.0 muscles and try a few new things. Considering that we, as librarians, are going to need to help customers through these websites and tools means that ultimately this will prove to have been an invaluable experience.

And now that its all done, I want to go publish my librarian card in my other blogs.

Okay, that is vain.

  1. What a terrific job on your 23 Things. I really enjoyed reading your thoughtful posts!

  2. Thank you Amy,

    It was difficult fitting it in with all the other blogging I had to do but it is paying off inside the library — a little but I expore more and more as time goes on — and outside the library — a lot!

    Thanks!
