Procrastinating...

Still procrastinating... Been reading for my latest assignment and my mind is whirrrrring at a standstill and I think it may go BOP! when it stops...

So many things I read and want to do but can’t right away. Even when the literature says changes needs to be planned on a 3 -5 year scale I want it now! When the lit says you need a good interface to direct students to digital information I think, I know but I can’t do it in one day! I have to learn how to make it right, negotiate with other staff and then make it work... at least Mama Bear (our ‘Resource Centre Manager’) also thinks it’s a priority and is moving some of my more clerical tasks (cataloguing periodicals) back to our technicians to give me time to get working on it.

We bought a digital book at the end of last term. We got a hard copy as well which was a bit dull but came with free digital book that should be very clear and clean to read online. At the other campus they were one for one against but the one against had the final say. The rep came to us when it was me and the Shadow, but we could agree to disagree and leave the decision to Mama Bear. I think it will be a great leap forward for the library.

I think I leave all my study til the last minute because I would be too excited and frustrated to do little bits every week! Better get the brain back to ZIP!

In next week’s thrilling episode remind me to ramble my thoughts about policy and process...
