Zotero

After coming across a job post for a part-time virtual bibliographer, for which knowledge of Zotero was a requirement, I am eager to learn the ins-and-outs of the program. Other requirements included expertise with LaTex and Bibtex, so I hope that somewhere within the year I acquaint myself with these systems as well. Tech courses are one of many banes of my existence, but their necessity seems ever present in my hopes of obtaining a career in library/research. It may be because the language involved is mostly alien to me, but I foresee that in time I will come to rely on the skills I build in classes like LIS2600 everyday.

LIS 2600

This blog is primarily to meet the requirements for the class Intro to Information Technologies, but along the way I hope to learn something about myself; not only about the methodologies that compose the way I think and learn, but how to effectively communicate that internal data to others.
