This was a good week! I am making headway into completing my assignments. I have given Chris a couple of them to correct and return to me. I got an e-mail from the Terry (Ed's Assistant) inviting all Librarians to a reception on Friday, November 3rd to meet all Law students. The students have made a request to meet all librarians. This week was interesting because I did answer quite a few questions with students and faculty. I like to think that I am very approachable, but it looks like I need to be part of a forum for them to meet me. It makes me smile. I look forward to the reception next week.

I find that I am very interested in the history of how and why of laws. The statues assignment really pushed me into territory I never thought I would ever explore; which is quite funny because thats what great about being a librarian in a legal setting. To quote a colleague from the Hesburgh library, I am actually pushing my "learning curve" to greater levels, which is pretty darn good for me at this time in my life.

I heard from Laura this week. Its time to get ready for review; I have to update and possibly change the layout of my cv, pull together letters and references to be added to my file, and come up with 3 to 5 goals I wish to accomplish in the coming year. I actually already have all of this information. This residency position is really a good experience, and I look forward to whats ahead before August 1, 2007 when this opportunity ends.
