Hello! Welcome to my new blog. I hope to use this blog as a vehicle for sharing my ideas related to information science and librarianism.
If you haven't clicked on the About the Librarian page, I'll share a little bit here: My name is Liz and I am currently a graduate student at The University of Tennessee. I will graduate in May 2015 with a masters of science in information science. I've taken a lot of interesting courses during my studies including:
- Digital Libraries
- Specialized Information Agencies and Services
- Government Information Sources
- Information Network Applications
- Information Technologies
The rest of my courses covered the basics of the profession, including: Organization and Representation of Information, Information Environment, Information Access and Retrieval, and Development and Management of Collections.
As I work full-time and have a young son, I am opting to take the comprehensive exam instead of writing a thesis or doing the e-portfolio. In the now famous words of Kimberly Wilkins (AKA Sweet Brown): Ain't nobody got time for that. I may even chronicle my attempts at studying for the comps. We'll see. :)

So far, I have enjoyed my time in the program and have learned a whole lot. There have been a few things I wish could have been different -- I will detail those thoughts in a different post.
For now, I am working on filling in some other non-post content here. Please check back later to see some updates!
