1/30/2010

This week of class was slightly more stressful than the prior weeks. This is because of the newsletter project. It is more time consuming to create a newsletter than I thought it would be. I am glad that I had this experience because I have seen librarians use newsletters in their profession. When I have a career, I will know how to create one, and be prepared for the amount of time and effort it takes.
The readings were interesting this week. I was unaware of the law in terms of website accessibility. I found out that certain measures must be taken (having long descriptions of pictures, diagrams, charts) are needed for those with vision problems. I did not realize the responsibility I will have to make sure all students can access the technology in the SLMC. It is helpful to know the resources available, especially the free resources that Janet Hopkins wrote about in one of her articles.
