From the monthly archives: July 2011
I’m pretty tired as I write this so I’ll be brief.
Today was more about communication efforts as I took my first bold steps into my library’s organization. I answered a lot of emails, wrote up a survey to ask how information is stored, named, and managed in the organization, met the teen intern, [...]
Have you seen Office Space? Do you remember the infamous scene where the manager leans into the cubicle and drawls out that he’ll need the main character to work that weekend? Do you know how inefficient people like that are? They enjoy micromanaging like a boss while seemingly doing nothing themselves. I also have experience [...]
Today was a day where it felt like I got nothing done at work. Yet I am somehow exhausted so another rambling post about various aspects…
The reoccurring thread was trying to solve an issue on the website for another department. I bounced the problem back and forth with my groupmate. Eventually on the way [...]
As I tagged the above photo on Facebook, I’m a “totally legit” librarian now! I signed off on my employment paperwork today. Today was not too crazy as I carried around my purse, sweater (I heard the basement was icy cold–it was a perfect temperature actually!), and lunchbox until my boss made me put them [...]
Today was laundry and fix/finish my skirts day. I broke the zipper in the white skirt, so I had to rip out the old one and sew in the new one. Thomas finished the black skirt by putting the waistband in for me. Confession: I wore it a few times this past year with the [...]
This freelance project is due by August 1st. The client does not have any content yet besides photos so it’s difficult working on this project. I had to design the navigation system which took a couple of days to fuss out. Then working on one of their ideas, I decided to lay this out with [...]
I am apparently now writing a little series on how to use the Conditional Fields module for Drupal. Yesterday I wrote instructions on how to use the module in two different ways. Then late last night I ran into another problem: how to have one field (dependent) controlled by multiple selector fields [...]
Building upon the previous post, I can also use that method with a slight adjustment to use taxonomy terms instead of fields. In this example, I wanted to create four regions (Caribbean, Central America, North America, South America) with associated countries under each region.
I created a taxonomy called Regions and added my [...]
So I had a problem that I needed to solve for my client’s website. Users of the website will be encouraged to upload resources (the site is a bit like an annotated bibliography). I have nine different resource types. While each resource type has some features in common (language, title, etc.) they were also [...]
For once I am not adding content to a client’s website! I am just designing and building the structure and then will pass the content addition to the next person.
