Week 2 and I'm at the Jersey shore finishing up the last of my work for the day before I actually enjoy my brief vacation. I continue to enjoy all that I've learned so far, which is a lot, since librarianism is new to me. I'm glad to hear some of the discourse surrounding the present and future of the field, as it seems to me that librarians recognize the need to innovate to cater to their patrons in an increasingly informational society. One of my worries (which I am somewhat ashamed to admit) in going into library studies is its ambiguous future. It seems from what I've heard so far that the importance of librarians, though changing, will continue, as it has for hundreds of years prior.
My only frustrations so far have been technical, as I haven't been able to read/hear much of the content available online. I understand the problems I am experiencing are shared, so I'll hang in there and continue to follow the syllabus and hopefully I won't get too far off track.
AAhhhh, the shore. My concentration is fading... More tomorrow!
