The last couple of weeks have been a bit up in the air for the project, due to a number of unforeseeable things that came up on both ends. Not really anything to get concerned about, since the project is expected to kick into overdrive this coming week.
I’m spending Monday, Tuesday, and all of Wednesday tying up the loose ends on the project prior to making the poster for the poster session. I’m confident that the bulk of work will be done, and I will have a pretty great presentation and project to share with colleagues.
For this week, the goals include:
- Book labeling
- Determining the materials collection cataloging plan
- Cataloging the materials collection
- Designing a how-to manual for cataloging both the books and the materials
Those are, of course, client-side. For my side, I plan on doing the following this week:
- Figuring out how to design my poster for the poster session – I know how to do it, I’m just trying to figure out how to make it visually appealing
- Printing and mounting the poster.
- Preparing a 90 second synopsis of the project
I’ve got something brewing in my mind about how to make the poster visually appealing. I just need to figure out how feasible it is to do.
I’m pretty excited that things worked out so I can devote this entire week to working on and finishing up the project. The last couple of weeks have been tough classwork wise, but putting in the extra effort there helped carve out this nice wrapping-up time for the capstone.
