Rose Tyler Architecture Dissertation: what dissertation topics to present relating to some new current affairs in architecture?

Architecture is the art and science of scheming out and construct buildings and other physical structures by a person or a computer, primarily to provide shelter. It is the art or science of building; exclusively: the art or practice of designing and building structures and especially livable ones. For your architecture dissertation you are required to do methodical research work. Architectu… Continue

Janet Wilkins How To Write A Commendable GCSE Coursework?

Coursework writing is really not a peanut as I took it in the beginning when I was assigned a college coursework. It was really tough to find coursework help, even online coursework help. But you know internet is a magical world, sooner or later you come to the right place. So did I when I started searching online coursework help. But it took a lot of time of mine to find the exact material for writing my college coursework. It is very essential to have the correct guidelines for writing… Continue

Lincoln Builds Question About Studying Overseas

I have an opportunity to study LIS in London next semester. I think everything is set, but my parents are wondering about things like insurance. They are wondering if our domestic US Medical insurance will cover me or if I need to buy a Travel health insurance policy. This is a great opportunity but I don't want it to become too expensive.

Nicole Show us your Library 2.0! - Class project

Hello, everyone! I'm a student at Dominican University where I'm enrolled in a class exploring Library 2.0. We are working on a project to gather images of how library as a place is changing in the face of Library 2.0. I have started a flickr group called Show us your Library 2.0! to try and bring together images of some of these changes. Follow the link and have a look. Feel free to join and pass it along to your friends, fellow libraria… Continue

Fern Chasida Started a part time job in a law firm library

My first library job! I did volunteer in my daughter's school library last year and shelved books and helped prepare new books for shelving. I actually found the library job through my school's career center website. I can honestly say that I have NEVER been interested in working in this field and I hope that it's okay. I just want to gain practical experience and learn as much as I can. The librarian there is super nice, easygoing, laid back, flexible, and is willing to let me do… Continue

Mandy Simon I'm still here...

But barely. I realize I haven't posted in....forever, prior to leaving for my month-long study abroad trip to England I think. Wow. Sadly Ning has become more of a back-burner social networking site for me....among the ranks of facebook to me-- something I browse occasionally, and touch base every so often. I'm an avid myspacer though-- not entirely proud of that fact, it's just worked into my day like checking email. But I digress.

Well the big graduation date is December. I can't bel

Rhonda Crim-Tumelson Ouch.

I just got my first rejection notice from a job application. I really didn't think I would be cut on the first round. My cover letter is pretty good, but I don't have a whole lot of experience. So, this job hunting business might be a bit more tricky than I supposed. Some people think it might be the school I am attending, but I didn't think that only people who attend the top schools get jobs. Am I out of touch?

Rhonda Crim-Tumelson The Bridge

I have been busy this month with summer school. The School Media and Materials for Children classes have consumed a lot of my time and many of my thoughts. In grad school, I have focused on instruction and marketing / outreach. But time and again, I find myself researching school libraries. There seems to be a divide between academic and school libraries, as if two separate species use these facilities. Students who graduate high school in May will become college freshmen only three months later… Continue

Rhonda Crim-Tumelson ALA Tips

I made it through my first ALA with only a few snags. Here are my tips for any future big conferences:

Wear sensible shoes, no matter how dowdy they look. I was a fool and decided to wear attractive footwear. BIG HUGE mistake. Blisters everywhere. Much pain.

Seek out inexpensive restaurants that will feed you vegetables. We frequented the Saints Paradise Church Cafeteria near the Convention Center. Nice folks. Good eats.

Plan a LOT before you leave. It made a big diffe… Continue

Mandy Simon I'm still a student, right?

So this summer has already been a whirlwind, and it's about to get windier. (Is that a word?)

We've got a bunch of librarian openings at our library, which means I've been working extra hours. I've also been the lucky one to become the Children's alternate associate, which means I spend an awful lot of my time at the children's desk these days. I love it and it's great- but it is so exhausting when I get home. I had no idea that summer would be like this. Between SRP decorating, progra

Vanessa Paige Nelson Community Informatics Corps event

I'm in the Community Informatics Corps at UIUC GSLIS. I take classes at the Puerto Rican Cultural Center (PRCC) in the Humboldt Park neighborhood of Chicago because UIUC has a partnership with the center. UIUC students work with PRCC staff and volunteers on various projects related to LIS generally and community information systems more specifically. So, for example, over the last year UIUC students have been a part of the development of curriculum at Dr. Pedro Albizu Campos High School (an a

Rhonda Crim-Tumelson Summer Lovin'

It's more like -- I'm lovin' summer. Sleeping late and staying up late. Movies, friends, sewing. . .

Graduate school really took away a huge chunk of my life, and I didn't really realize it until now. I have arranged to take a couple of summer classes, but they only last one month. Then, I will take three classes in the fall and GRADUATE in December.

I am leaving in about two weeks for ALA, and I would really like to meet up with any of you who are going. I will post something… Continue

Michelle Grades

Since this is a student community, I thought I'd share. I received A's in both of my classes this past semester... which means I am still on the Dean's List. Hooray! I had a tech services class and a class about being a media center librarian. Now I am just waiting to hear back from the University I am TRYING to transfer to, to see if they have received all of my transcripts yet. I'm not sure why they are having such difficulty in getting them. It's rather frustrating on my end, that's for sure. Continue
