@kevinm That would be fine if you want to. I am not super worried about anyone’s participation this term.

@kataloging I see the comment on @kevinm ‘s #5. I see you made a comment on an earlier post but for some reason it is not showing up. Do not worry. I take that into account.

@kevinm The cats might have their own ideas! Yes – Billy and Samm force me to take breaks. Been very good these days with a bit of back issues popping up. Take care of your spine! 😀

@kevinm Oh yes..I am 100% in for taking care of mental and physical health. Long dog walks in the morning are most useful for this.

@kevinm I would say that a community-based source runs the gamut of early in the info cycle to late – as you point out. And you make a good point about a publish book being later in the information cycle so […]

Links to LRM Videos Hey all – @kevinm helped me discover I had an old link in the “Getting Started” post for the LRM. Here is the updated version: Literature […]

@kevinm So glad you asked this question. I opened up the video above and discovered it is a previous version…not the most recently recorded one. I spent a bit more time in the newest video on that column. From […]

@kevinm I was thrilled to see her work mentioned on one of the socials a few semesters ago. Some of my favorite emerging research.

@kevinm I’m laughing out loud as I read your comment about flip flopping back and forth between ideas. I’m right there with you! In some ways I feel like I’ve already researched three communities!

@kevinm and @michael thank you both for your input! I think it will be interesting because it’s a community that’s constantly changing. People seek and then gain employment, so there’s a lot of movement in and out of the community. And different job seekers’ needs will vary so much, so there will be a broad range of information needs all with a…[Read more]

Hey @kevinm! Sorry for disappearing on you there, work was completely hectic this week!
I’m glad that you’re back to considering child communities again! I keep thinking back to your introductory post in 203 and how you seemed so passionate about the children’s department. Of course you should go whichever direction you feel most solid with, but…[Read more]

I think this is somehow quite difficult if you’re working closely with an information community already. I keep getting stuck on the primary information community that I serve every day at work. Is it the same for you working in the children’s department?
I don’t know about your library, but at ours fantasy juvenile fiction and juvenile…[Read more]

Hi @kataloging! I’m actually not working in a children’s department yet, although that’s the goal. Obviously that Information Community is of high interest to me, and I really like your ideas (especially the graphic novel side of things). But I also know I’ll be exploring the community in depth in some of my electives, and I’m intrigued by this…[Read more]

Hi again @kataloging. How’s it coming on your end? I find myself flip flopping between ideas. I’m now back to leaning toward children as a community, partially because of a picture book lecture I attended at a work event that reminded me of my enthusiasm for the topic at large, and also because I love interacting with the kids at the desk as they…[Read more]

@kataloging No reason to apologize at all! This was just me with thoughts swirling around my head trying to figure this puppy out. You’re right about my passion for the children’s department, and I’m excited to figure out where I land with the subject matter. I know we still have a little time, but I want to better visualize where I’m going with…[Read more]

@mkane Haha oh yeah I think I literally *have* researched three communities. It’s been a real ping pong game inside my head. It’s nice to have company in this regard. I think I’m pretty close to decided, but I now have to sift through what I’ve found and make sense out of it all!
