Week 5

 It is a bit slow this next week, but there is a lot going on since my site supervisor is currently figuring out and creating upcoming assignments and other things related to the library's website. We are usually scheduled for telephone meetings every Wednesday at 11:30am, but my supervisor has postponed our next meeting until October 3 since she is now hosting a training this Wednesday morning.

 I have completed putting together information that will eventually go into both the website and subject guides. The information for the website is on Axis 360 and 3M Cloud Library, and the information that will be added to the subject guides is on social media sites like Facebook, Flickr, Twitter, and You Tube. My site supervisor will be in the meantime figuring out how to get Axis 360 and 3M Cloud Library working, and how to create the subject guides based on my research and findings. There is an upcoming assignment where I put together information about the staff, which has been postponed because of some technical issues. In the meantime, I will be creating blogs and posting information on social media sites.

 The two learning outcomes I will be focusing on in the next week are:

1. The student will maintain existing materials and create new materials for publicity and trainings to enable staff to help promote the library and its programs, and assist patrons in utilizing library services and materials.

2. The student will help develop and maintain the Marin County Free Library website so that patrons will learn to use the library, become informed about the library's reading programs and events, and get information about the library including locations and service hours.

 The blogs that I will be creating are to "help develop and maintain the Marin County Free Library website so that patrons will learn to use the library and become informed about the library's events." The blogs also function as "new materials for publicity to enable staff to help promote the library and assist patrons in utilizing library services."

 This may sound boring, but I am basically creating blogs for the next week while waiting for my site supervisor to have my next major assignments and certain aspects of the website ready for me to work on.
