Dorothea "LibSkrat" Salo @dsalo@digipres.club

Oh right. #introduction Dorothea, librarian, LIS educator (for now; I'm kinda looking tbh), former scholcommer and research-data person, privacy hawk, bicycle rider, figure-skating fan, Good Omens fan, Cat Person.

Phew, glad I checked the OpenRefine assignments. Wikidata reconciliation endpoint has moved.

In response to a (knowing) "Who Assesses the Assessment Librarians" on Mokum, I quipped "Truth, Freedom, Privacy, Reasonably Applied Statistics, and a Hard-Boiled Egg"

and now I want to write the article for which that would be a reasonable title.

Maybe if I get around to what I provisionally titled "Library Value Agenda Considered Unethical" that would work.

... oh, wait, I looked yesterday and I actually don't need to do a separate lecture for that.

Good. Striking it off the list.

Okay, this syllabus is DONE and I have a (comprehensive, I hope?) list of to-dos for the course, the earliest of which (barring the lecture I'm about to record) doesn't need to be done until the third course week.

I think this is a sign that I can take the day off tomorrow.

"accepted with minor revisions" is a lovely, lovely phrase

And let me just say that as soon as you call your project "the ultimate" ANYTHING you lose my vote.

That just screams "entitled cishet white dude with zero concept of prior art, v likely a non-librarian with nothing but contempt for librarians."

Dagnabbit, I forgot about LIS Journals Behaving Badly. I sure do want to write that one. @CayceP you still up for it?

Also, linked-data infrastructure continues to be total and absolute SHITE. I continue to fail to care how many ontologies get built if nothing useful gets built atop them.

I see eagle-i is defunct. Object lesson in "no, really, do the simplest thing that can possibly work."

dang, my notes for "PEP II: The PEPpening" are 🔥 🔥 🔥. I really should write that one.

"Want #CS4All? Acknowledge #CSTaughtByAll" (intended as a CACM opinion piece) is also good.

accidentally clicked on my article-idea folders

I have... a lot of article ideas.

I gotta pick one or two to actually write.
