I have a new job…title.
Cliff October 5th, 2007
About two months ago I ceased being the Reference Facilitator and became the Technology Librarian. This is probably part of the reason for my sparse updates over the last little while–I’ve been swamped trying to help create a website usability study, a library instruction assessment tool, and a blog for our upcoming Big Read.
The most exciting thing for me about the new position is that I can find places where we can improve user services. Jane made a good point about being a 2.0 Librarian in a 1.0 Library, and I think that a lot of the frustrations that we feel as techie Librarians can be channeled effectively. That’s why I enjoy being part of the Library 2.0 community–I’m always seeing folks do amazing things, thinking of creative ways to improve service and information quality. I’m glad to be a part of that.
