On the ref desk at work today. Have had some good q's and tech issues. Picking possible journals for next article submission.
| jmburroughs @dcornwall Thanks for highlighting the guides. This coming week I'll start begging people for new content (& adding my own). |
|
| jmburroughs @vdglenn Oof. We just went to a "no gifts without prior approval" policy. Not sure how that will fly w/ retiring profs. |
|
| jmburroughs Reading article by M. Waldo from 1977. Fantastic overview of how gov docs were organized historically. Mainstreaming was orig. dominant! |
|
| jmburroughs Home again, home again, jiggity jig. Cats seem happy to see me. |
|
| jmburroughs Running into everyone I know today. It's really nice. So far. :-) |
|
| jmburroughs Have decided I'm simply too tired for receptions tonight. Need to grab a little food & write up mtg summary. And watch DW. |
|
| jmburroughs @vdglenn Huh wha? So does the res go to Council, then? Can GODORT specifically not support it? |
|
| jmburroughs @vdglenn Exactly. I'm not waiting for that to get going--we're already taking action w/in regional group, for instance. |
|
| jmburroughs @vdglenn Maybe twittering will make mtg less painful. The working group would be redundant, I think. GPO already has task force. |
|
| jmburroughs Traces of the Trade documentary last night on PBS was phenomenal. Really shifted my way of thinking. http://is.gd/FJf |
|
| jmburroughs @dcornwall Very true (@ not going to Congress right now). I'm in agreement. Safe travels to Anaheim. |
|
| jmburroughs @dcornwall From teaching students @ leg. hist. I know any change will take time (& possibly several iterations)=good to start talking now. |
|
| jmburroughs @dcornwall Absolutely. Start w/ thinking @ what issues exist & what change we need. I don't want to reject Title 44 change altogether, tho. |
|
| jmburroughs @dcornwall Glad the convo is going strong on the listservs & hope it continues. Change won't be immediate, but we must start planning now. |
|
| jmburroughs Wondering if a 3-hour drive to see a favorite musician is worth it given gas prices. |
|
| jmburroughs @joshuamneff I don't know why they don't like it. It's already worked once: http://tinyurl.com/5o2n24 |
|
| jmburroughs @vdglenn That's a good question. That said, I appreciated FB's perspective of specific obstacles. I could do w/ fewer ALL CAPS tho. |
|
| jmburroughs I think today will largely be about ALA prep and some cataloging work (which I hope will include research article prep). |
|
| jmburroughs @shines Yes, it's fun to try to handle a reference question on the phone when there is drilling going on right above my head. |
