Brief musings while working at the Reference Desk
Getting a lot of nice thank-you's this evening... #ChatReference #NationalLibraryWeek
Deciding what is ‘scholarly’ is not a library but rather an academic decision.
ChatRef (Best question of the day): 'Are you an actual person or a bot?' P.S. Last shift of the year.
Why I prefer the radio (i.e. audio) version of PBS's Newshour: the people are less ugly.
Worst thing about chat reference : the number of times you get cut off. Sucks.
Today's high point: Three research questions all at once via chat -- plus a knock on my door from a neighbor locked out of her apartment.
Next Tuesday (i.e. day after Labor Day) is beginning of the new Academic Year! Yowza!
