Real-world grounding
I waited to do this post until I saw what students were coming up with by way of ideas for final projects, because I didn’t want to railroad them into projects of my choosing. (Okay, I admit I did railroad one, but not too strongly, I hope.)
If your library is looking at starting a pathfinder-wiki, a blog, or an Open Journal Systems installation, and you wouldn’t mind working with a library-school student to define scope and requirements, plan for sustainability, choose out software (where appropriate), and perhaps even customize it, drop me an email, please? I’ve got smart people in this class. I’d like to see them contribute to the library world.
I may post again, as more project ideas trickle in.
