Job description

Having to look again at my current job description, to alter in, so where I work can recruit a suitable replacement, whilst I am on maternity leave.

Wish list 
A qualified librarian, ideally with Chartership
Copyright and information literacy, so we have someone who is knowledgeable in both fields.
Experience in FE and HE education- you never kow when Ofsted are going to turn up.


Useful points to consider from Laura about the job advert.

Back to college

Having had a two week break, feeling very freshed. I've managed to work on my Chartership, starting to feel more confident, and happier with the content, to the point where I have started to remove some less needed information. I need to look in to reflective writing, and my mentor has kindly sent me some information to read up on this morning.

Other developments for the week are: read the rest of Art libraries journal, focusing on copyright, having already read two of the article and been very impressed with what i've read, as I am currently working on a digital achive for the college. pulling together all the images of students work, in the first instance it was going to be for academics to have a pool of images they can use for presentations and to demonstrate what previous students have done. However, looking in to the copyright, and consulting with other who have provided a similar service, but gone global. I am hoping that our archive has similar success.
