Research Proposal Class

I guess I went over board yesterday due to an Error code 0004. I don't know what that means, and instead while calling the registar office i complained about last semester.

It was a mistake. But I'm getting calls for admittance into universities for an MBA, and if I can switch degrees or do a dual master's degree that would be ideal. But I'm going to finish my degree whatever it is, even if I'm getting no help from the department. They ignore me now. I was suppose to call the head of the advising team, but decided against it. I don't want to start a war.

I'm doing my research proposal on libraries and how to improve them to help the community. My focus is the public library, and I have to do a survey. So that is what I'm doing. I have 2 people lined up to interview, and I'm looking for a few more. I'm paying for lunch. I have a list of questions ready to be filled out on paper by them cause I"m bad at writing what people say. It's a hearing problem I have.

Saint Leo University called me for admittance into their MBA program, so did AIU, and Kaplan University. I just want something I can get a job in, and I found a job by managing my company with my MLS, but I need something for management. I also want more accounting classes, and stuff. I didn't do enough.

I might go to full sail after my usf education and get an AS in entertainment management. It might help with budgeting, line producing, and everything I'm missing in the production. It's hands on and what I need in an education. Books are great source of information, and the internet can't be put down. If your source isn't non fiction or non fiction online source then its fiction based.

That's why when i write papers i use journals and older books from the library. I'm going to UCF's library on saturday and paying for a library card. Driving to Tampa to use their library is rediculous. I need one in orlando and the public library has nothing to help me I'm finding. That is why my research proposal is on that situation.

Businesses and Humanities Class

I have been busy this semester and did some cleaning to catch up on some personal things. I also am doing a lot of research and needed a little Rest and Relaxation. My weekend is to catch up on that, and during the week I normally stick to homework.

This semester I'm taking a Business and Law Information Class. It is teaching me everything is searching stock sites and coming up with reports, to finding information to come up with a business plan for a project. i'm doing a referencing project of sources on the web and answers.

then in my humanities class i had to write a bibliography guide. and it turned out really cool. I'm almost done. Single space its 14 pages, but i need more dictionaries. I only have one and its an oxford dictionary. I have a lot of guides and a few encylopedias and listed about 21 internet database scholarly resources for philosophy. so far when ever i go to my partner for advice, she shoots it back at me to do. so i've given up on counting on her to finishing it up. I'm not replying on google docs either. I'm coming up with deep descriptions of these school library internet databases, and see if there are references on these websites i can write in apa. i asked my partner to do it, but she claimed she didn't get the word document or maybe she wants it in google docs but i like it in word.

I'm also working on the introduction from three text. History of Libraries, Humanistic Tradition Text year 2002 edition, and Philosophy of Mind text book. I have to find the intro to humanities, and see what the history of libraries intro is, and see what Blazk's intro is. I don't just use one source thank you very much, that isn't scholarly or helpful to come up with your own edition.

I'm also doing site visits, and have to write that report this week. And I have to write a mini-grant proposal.

See all the stuff you do as a librarian and with my professors. by the time I'm done, I'll know more about academic libraries, then any other type of library.

Next semester I'm taking Research Methods only. I'm going to concentrate on one class, and graduate in spring 2011. I get stressed out taking two courses, and research methods I don't want to flunk.

I'm redoing my closet into a little office. I took out my collectibles in bins, and I might start cataloging what I have, and coming up with a list of their value right now. i have a lot. I ordered a small desk for my laptop, and i'm investing in a printer just for me. and i bought a closet organizer, and i bought new sheets, and i bought new pillows, and i did Hanukkah shopping. i bought four items so far at JCpenny this last weekend.

I bought Pajamas for my mom. my brother is getting an Arizona graphic tea, my dad is getting a sweater and a silk polo. I'm not done yet either. I don't have a job and just volunteer at different libraries and establishments to help the community out. There are so many veterans that need help so I just thought helping even one day a week would be something I could do.

i won't get a job at a library till I finish schooling cause i might think I know everything but I don't. I'm constantly learning new things, and I find that artist don't always agree with everyone and I've been a poet since 2001. i even have the book i was published it.

I'm Complaining to the ALA about the USF Program

Dear USF,

I am sorry about my actions. I am dealing with a lot of stress and know nothing about the subject of being a librarian, but I do know what it's like to research. And I found 39 resources in books from first account drafts, to dictionaries, encyclopedias, simple guides that break down the philosophy for the average person, then dense books for others.

I work as a group, but I'm finding the people this semester are very friendly and want to use only internet websites from Google. And I didn't want to use google. I know i need resource websites from the online catalog from the library.

My partner was the one who told me to go to the book store, because I knew we needed resources in text too. Cause sometimes journal sites might have a lot of information, but having books help too.

Also my partner had me fill in her part, and started getting bossy. I go with the flow type, and I am cooling off. I just want to finish my degree.

I love library science, but maybe research is where I should head. I know its easy to look through the database to find articles, but its harder to find the right books.

I'm sorry for what I did. I want to have fun and finish my work. I don't get out often, and when I do its just to go bowling for an hour, or the gym for 30 minutes. It's part of my theorpy. I have a hard time with interacting with people, and this group activites help me get involved. When you've been hospitalized for 4 months, you loose touch with humankind. You get surrounded by people worse then you, and you only dream of getting out. I almost died in a hospital twice. Once by the flu turning into phenomina putting me into acute care, and the other it was when I was hosptialized for my bipolar episode. I could of died both times.

I had my mom read over Dr Perez's email, and I really just have a pessimistic look on things and just feel like taking the punches and be done with it. I did the assignment, and will let my partner add the sites to it. She told me to get the book sources at the book store and library.

I'm still learning, so please excuse me.

Law Librarian Volunteership

I guess I need to update my blogs! Its been what months. Well things have been going well, I have been excercising like mad to loose pounds and they come right back once my doctor adds another pill. So I am too frustrated to even get on a tredmil.

I am volunteering at a law library. It is a law firm that does real estate home ownerships. I'm learning filing (circulation), copying a law document, proofing them (which I'm realizing I need a law dictionary for), and then I am doing or teaching myself animation. Its fun. I added a film on this site for your pleasure, its nothing major.

I'm also going to be volunteering at a Holocaust Museum Library, I do it on July 5th and I'm going to do it every other week.

The law firm is expanding, and do a very good job at representing home associations. Everyone is very nice in these professional establishments, its nothing like working at a call center or service industry like I'm used to working in. They are expanding, and I'm glad they took me on. I meant to stay today in order to archive files, but I have to get in touch with an old professor to see if he has any advice on what to do. The Office Manager said its easy, but I plan on tackling it on Monday cause I work from 930-1. today i woke up later then usual, and got there at 10. I'm usually out of bed at 7, but my dog has been waking up later then usual.

The law firm I volunteer at is John L Di. Masi, PA. I do to put something on my resume besides working for my dad, and so far I like it as experience and as something to do. Its great to do something you normally don't do and find out you like it. In the Middle Ages, that was call Apprenticeship. Its too bad they don't do that now. It would give people a reason to get up out of bed, into the work force, and do something constructive and learn a new skill. I am.

Intro to Library Administration - The Direct Marketing Woes

I guess I forgot about this blog for a while. I need to update what I'm learning, and what I'm doing in my class and which class I'm taking right now.

I'm taking Intro to Library Administration, and I'm finding Libraries are 'not-for profit' intities. I'm also finding out that the budget allowance for a library in the government for public sector is only 8% of every tax dollar. I'm also finding out that librarians are the nuts and bolts to non-profit organizations that have libraries, which house web sources, technology, equipment, staff, and almost like a corporation. It's very hard to comprehend the amount of effort that goes into running a library, until you take a course like this, and actually do research on how a MBA is no match for running a direct marketing company, that I'm finding that deals with the retail world of delivering merchandise to the street. It's the inventory and budget costs that messes a company like that up, and usually currently librarians are trained to be leaders, not followers in their curriculum.

That is just a snap shot of my now 8 page paper for my Intro to Library Administration paper. I have 12 sources, and I'm waiting till doctor appointments wind down, and my cold goes away. I must go to the library to get books on management.

50 minute Presentation on MetaData and My class In Copy Right Law

I guess it's about time I update people on the progress of my classes, and the reason why i haven't posted in a while. I'm an author, and I'm a student at the University of South Florida in now Media Specialist K-12 or I'll just get an MLS degree.

I dropped the Law Class, but I was learning a lot. I couldn't understand the readings, and the language in the reading was so dense with language I couldn't understand that I didn't want to mess up any more assignments. I messed up one, not because of my language but when I tried to explain what I got out of the assignment, it did not make any sense to the professor. So I dropped.

In my Organization of Knowledge Class So far I have a .94666666

I'm working on Library of Congress Subject Headings now. It's a tough subject. I just finished AARC2, and Access Points, Meta Data, and Authority Codes, and All the fields for cataloging. I got a 6 on one, and a 5.2 on the other. I"m waiting for the last grade which I know I did not pass with a 5.

I did my group presentation on the weekend, and I had to slow down my speech cause I noticed the time on the clock. I didn't want us to go under. It was a 50 minute presentation on Meta, and I did the Pro and Cons. It was a good speech I thought. I also got elected to press the button for power point. I don't know why either, it's easy to operate. But I'm short, so I didn't have a shadow.

I'm working on my next research paper, I'm 1350 pages into it. I have 5 sources. 2 from the books in class, and 3 scholarly journals from Wilson. It's for a 1600 word paper, and so now I'm just adding my problem two sections with more comments and examples with sample quotations from citation. Things I can't find, i delete. I used examples from our recent class as decisions on the topic. It's on the problems with the conflicting usages of MARCXML, MARC21, and MARC and with now the use of Dublin Core. I'm presenting it as a conflicting of search results from the consumers, with the librarians as well.

I'm using 2 books and 3 scholarly journals as supporting and conflicting evidence for against MARC. And now I'm looking for 3 scholarly journals for supporting and conflicting evidence against Dublin Core.

If you ever want a copy of my work, don't feel shy. I'm on http://stores.lulu.com/asag82
