This week has been a whirlwind of guest lectures, new ideas, and mind-bending. Michael Stephens (www.tametheweb.com) helping to envision the library of tomorrow. Fenella France (www.loc.gov) using new cutting edge technologies to conserve yesterday's treasures at the Library of Congress. Possibilities...new frameworks... shifting paradigms.
We were warned when we began the journey toward that PhD that it would be life changing, but I never imagined that it could be life-giving. Despite the new challenges, the lack of sleep, and the constant second-guessing, I realize that I am becoming a new person. All of the years that I have spent being told that something was impossible, now I am being given the freedom to explore the unthinkable - and imagine it into fruition. It is like my own personal Enlightenment movement, and I love it!
