Another random day in a random summer. Today I am yet again wearing sandals and a bohemian summery outfit and it is pouring with rain outside.
Go to a meeting I’d forgotten all about where Registry are demonstrating the new online registration system. Call me an old cynic but I can’t see how it will work for brand new students – far too many screens and decisions and payments involved. More bottlenecks than the Tesco crash-bash.
Then a team meeting which is supposed to be short but which grows arms and legs. Ends in a traipse up to the journal shelves to try and undo some of the damage we did earlier in the summer by making hasty decisions under pressure. For good measure go and identify a load of duplicate copies of computing books to try and ease the pressure in the 006s. Course, I would’ve done my annual stock edit for computing if it hadn’t been for all these other pesky reports and nonsense to manage.
Finally write up my UC&R conference notes, remembering what a good time I had in Liverpool hanging out with lovely librarian types amongst all the lambananas!
