Diary 12/02

A little follow up from previous posts:

  • The professor of my RFA class did not respond to the thread I posted. I'm surprised. I did get plenty of similar response from fellow students which surprised me even further. I thought I was on this island alone... I guess not. This is good to know, maybe we can effect some change.
  • My TLC group is SLOWLY moving along. The project is due on the 7th. The poster - thank god!- is done and submitted. We are now working on what is needed for the on campus students to present the poster. I am ashamed to admit that I have become passive agressive - I hate those type of people! But I have no recourse. I have been submitting information on our Google Doc to passively let them know that I am going to aggressively kick their A#$ when it comes to the peer review. I can smell their worry...
  • I received some resources from IPL within the suggested deadline. Those resources were so helpful. They stimulated my mind into thinking about other angles and I found even more resources. I think I have enough now to write a comprehensive paper. I have two more papers to write before 12/14. This is down from the high of four papers that were due two weeks prior. Almost to the finish line!

Finally - for this post - I found the greatest, most informative post for advice to potential librarians. To get the most out of it, you have to read all of the links and the comments from other readers. I was blown away by all of the information out there for us. I've shared the link:

Less than two weeks to go before holiday break. Yea! Yea! YEA!!!!!
