Yikes!! 😳 also, timely…

Visualization and design has changed so much in 25+ years. I don’t think we talk enough about professional development and continuing courses for higher ed faculty. Time to learn suffers when the need to produce is all that matters.

I’m taking two classes this semester: special librarianship and information design & visualization. It’s so humbling & invigorating to realize how much more there is to learn.

It doesn’t matter how old you are or how long you have been do the work, getting an invitation to participate in an event with people you admire and respect lifts your spirits and keeps you afloat.

I spent the day growing the list of people I follow here: poets, small presses, and creative nonfiction authors. Looking for a community of folk who believe in the power of language, reflection, and connection to find hope and resilience.

In 2019, one year after they led local DH Research Institutes for their communities, several Community Leads sat down to talk about their experience. What they learned is great advice for anyone trying to build DH communities. #DHRI2018 #DHRI #doingdh #dh

A sneak peek at what I'm going to say: lean into local strengths, find and sustain local and external partnerships, know your audience and purpose, use the resources you *do* have, start start small and build strategically and incrementally. #DHpractice #doingdh #dh
