ALA Competency 8: Administration & Management
INFO 5310, Term Project - The presentation discusses how a user could access information about Cushing Library and its resources. (Winter 2021 completed)
The presentation goes through the library’s website in pieces. The project helps both management and users assess Cushing’s and Bush's 43 Presidential online websites and collections and evaluate the services the library offers to the public. The library lists its partnerships with other libraries and network links to Texas A&M University and other structures. The purpose was to look at the website from a management point of you and how to present the resources and website breakdown to online users. I think I received an A on this assignment. The assignment taught me that a lot of detail and management goes into library websites so that users can access the materials offered. I think this assignment fits the competency because it discusses marketing, customer relationships, and customer service of Cushing Memorial Library and Archives, Sterling Evans Memorial Library, and George H.W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/12TTvUkOzgtXHCPFkhJQbWIv_iMf7hkHraZGrnSoyAno/edit
INFO 5306, Project Planning- The deliverable is a presentation of a project that was planned for a Marathon for Dallas ISD. (Completed Summer 2022)
The project plans to explain a detailed project plan for a Marathon for Dallas ISD. It entails a scope, ERD, Budget, Schedule, and list of DallasISD Administrators. The project was a step by step that was compiled in the end. Each assignment was due Friday at 5 pm as we were working on a deadline at a business. I think this project helped me pay more attention to detail and practice my time management skills in a new way. I received an A on this Assignment as a whole. This assignment taught me not to procrastinate and to always know what exactly the client is expecting to properly complete assignments. I also learned to work on a deadline and prioritize my time when producing each piece of the deliverable. I think that this paper fits the competency because I took on the role of managing the marketing, budget, announcements, schedule, and completion of the event from start to finish.
