So I have to write up some professional goals for my tenure packet, which I started working on today. Unfortunately, all the goals I could think of off the top of my head didn’t really seem appropriate for a document that will eventually go to the University President, never mind the JPC. So I’m putting them here instead, in no particular order.
Own my own staple remover.
You don’t necessarily think about this until you’re trying to make copies of all your annual reviews and Provost reports.
Get better wall art.
The better to meditate upon my professional goals, of course.
Delegate or otherwise shed all my job responsibilities related to all the paper in my office, so I can truly become an Electronic Resources Librarian.
Drink more water.
$3/month all you can drink. The price of about two cups of coffee. Less coffee, more water.
And speaking of goals, what’s with this blog anyway? One reason I haven’t posted for so long is that I’d like to set up my own WordPress blog at my own domain–you know, something with a catchy name and a cool graphic instead of a cookie-cutter template (no offense Blogspot). The problem is that it’s easier to ponder than to implement, so in the meantime three months have gone by and still no nifty new blog. Now that I’ve mentioned it here hopefully I’ll get off my virtual you-know-what and do something.
