Thing 1: Blogging

Hello! My name is Rose Redwood and I work at The Sage Colleges. I'm really excited to participate in CDLC's learning program. I've been working at the library at our Albany and Troy campuses for the last 10 years. I started out in circulation, then moved to interlibrary loan for a number of years, and then finally to technical services. I am currently the Bibliographic Records Manager. It's quite a mouthful to say. What exactly does my job title mean? I get that question a lot. I do a little of everything technical-related from copy cataloging, to maintaining our book order records, to dabbling in archives. Last year I learned how to digitize images on CONTENTdm, with a little help from my friends Ilka and Susan at CDLC. I do contribute to our library's blog occasionally, so I am glad that blogging on Blogger won't be too difficult to learn. What is difficult is trying to decide how to design the blog. Sometimes I feel we have too many choices which prevent us from making a decision. I am going to keep it simple!

  1. Sure this is not what this is for-are you Dan's mom? From the development across 32? Dan and Kayla were in Slingerlands pre-school together...what a small world! April Pisciotta

  2. Making connections is definitely a big part of this! :-)

    Love the simple design you chose. I agree, sometimes I just spend too much time fiddling with colors and layouts, but it is fun.

  3. Hi April. How's it going? I don't know if my previous reply to your comment went through. I just talked to Dan last night and he says he does remember Kayla. It's a small world, indeed!

  6. Rose is a big help to all of us at the library. She really does solve all my circulation charge out issues. If the phones at Sage ever get working I will be able to call her with the problem instead of going to her office.
