The Playful Antiquarian

The exhausted antiquarian

January 16th, 2005

Today is the last day of ALA Midwinter meetings for me. I am exhausted but energized. I will write a more detailed report of the weekend shortly, but for any interested readers, here is the list of meetings I attended:

• ACRL RBMS Bibliographic Standards Committee: Thesaurus Subcommittee
• ALCTS CCS CC:DA Joint ALCTS/ACRL Task Force on Cataloging Rules for Early Printed Monographs
• ACRL RBMS Bibliographic Standards Committee
• ACRL RBMS Public Services Discussion Group
• ACRL RBMS MARC for Special Collections Discussion Group
• ACRL RBMS Information Exchange

I also met my RBMS mentor on Friday and had a delightful dinner at the Island Hopper with many past Spectrum scholars on Saturday. Librarians are wonderful to be around; I think I have made a great career choice.
