Not A Guybrarian: August 2010
http://notaguybrarian.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 17, 2010. Archives TCG: Nerdiest thing EVER. Sooooo, this is supposed to be a wrap-up post on SAA 2010. Which I swear I am still going to do. But first for something a bit sillier. OK, check that, a LOT sillier. A bit of context: 2011 is SAA's 75th Anniversary Year, which means a lot of ill-conceived nostalgic foolishness. Exhibit A: Archivist Trading Cards. Anyway. Have you read the call for archivist trading cards? A little frivolous for a professional organization, you say? Herodotusjr...

A place to discuss and analyze those archival principles and practices that we often take for granted. Wednesday, August 30, 2006. It is fitting that my last post was entitled "Goody Two Shoes" because I returned from vacation to find a shoe sitting on my processing table. I had instructed my student assistant to inventory a collection while I was away and he found this shoe and left the following note:. I found this in Box 10. But it does not seem to "fit" the collection. Monday, August 07, 2006. Of You...

A place to discuss and analyze those archival principles and practices that we often take for granted. Monday, May 07, 2007. A Day in the Life. I often end each work day by working over the "required" 8 hours and not feeling as though I have accomplished much of anything. Then, when I run through the day in my mind, I realize that although I may not finish much of anything in a given day, I do. DAY OF AN ARCHIVIST.
