This week was a week of laying out plans and projects. While there are a variety of areas to work on, my first main project is to create a tutorial for how to search for materials in academic databases. The tutorial is going to be short and sweet and will focus on how to use keywords + boolean searching to find the stuff you need. The emphasis will be on a search strategy rather than on using a particular search platform/interface. While I’m not too sure of the design yet, it may or may not involve cats and will definitely be interactive. I’m aiming to have a draft by next week and go live the week after that.
Today was also City Tech’s Club Fair, which is when a bunch of student clubs have tables and students come to check them out. The library had a table and Nora brought down the button maker, which was a huge hit! I got to meet a bunch of students and took pictures of them with their custom buttons: https://www.instagram.com/p/BnrP6m7BNV5
I’m trying to up our social media presence so stay tuned for more regular instagrams and tweets!
