deborahAs I approach the end of library school, I am overwhelmed with the projects I don't have time to even investigate.
All important, exciting, an extremely interesting to me. Not to mention that I don't have time to look into all the personal projects that led to work on: bar-code scanning and cataloging my own book collection; writing the database to catalog our music collection so we can easily write tools to generate playlists and archive mixes we've made (even if we still only own analog copies of the songs); creating a comprehensive database of reference sources with annotations which can be used to generate bookmark files or pathfinders.
With luck, having this space to talk about these issues will help me find focus.
- Boatloads of open-source cataloguing projects
- Metadata initiatives out the wazoo
- Open Access initiatives
