Here are five more things…
- A little local history find for Seattle folks – “Lost Eddie Sato World’s Fair Photos Now Found.” The slides were at a discount store in Chicago. Pretty mod stuff!
- Why archive websites? This article from LOC tells you about the why and what of web archiving.
- I’ve been looking for examples of nice finding aids in CONTENTdm. Here are some from the Phillips Library.
- I must watch this webinar now – “Achieving Thresholds for Discovery: Addressing Issues with EAD to Increase Discovery and Access.” Thanks OCLC!
- Check out this Kickstarter project for library advocacy – libraries are more than books!

Findability is “the degree to which a particular object is easy to discover or locate” (Peter Morville, 2005, Ambient Findability)
My first after school job was in the public library. I developed an appreciation of the Dewey Decimal system and never looked back, except for that whirlwind decade in advertising…
Luckily, a digital asset management project at DDB reignited my interest in library and information sciences. I quickly obtained an MLIS and a position as a Digital Asset Manager administering a system for a high profile client following several awesome metadata projects and an internship at a worldwide media giant.
My information related interests include taxonomy, metadata, cataloging, digitization, search, social media, digital asset management, emerging technologies and visual resources.
Call me the Space Age Librarian, Visual Resource Manager, Content Specialist, Cataloging and Metadata Librarian or Digital Asset Management Expert.
