august 14, 2023 // rosy evening ☁️💕 (1/100 days of productivity) Worked a full day from home in my part-time job, then decided to still go to the library/university building and boy, was I glad I did! Got some literature stuff and reviewing as a student assistant for my professor out of the way and got rewarded with pretty clouds on the way home after picking up a few groceries. Not every day will be as long and productive as this, but it felt good today.

I finished my spring semester with straight A’s!! I’m so proud of myself. I also got a student assistant position in July to assist a teacher which is amazing for me! Also, here’s a picture of some new stationary that I bought today:)

Hello? Anyone still here around? I'm really sorry for the hiatus! I've had a lot of work and life things going on...but for this summer I want to set a queue definitely!

What happened the last months?

working at our japanese studies institute as a student assistant

holding a speech about my research topic infornt of over 40 people during japanese culture festival (with mic!)

my first academic article will be published in a magazine in july!!

I got accepted as a speaker in September for Japanese studies panel at a conference

I have enough hours (pre) worked to get august basically free to work/write my long due papers!!

I've got two ideas for my master thesis and can't decide because nobody wrote about it before

this is all really exciting and exhausting at the same time! Sometimes I had the feeling nothing is moving and I will never finish anything but slowly but surely everything falls into place...I hope so at least. I really missed being on tumblr and the studyblr/japanblr/gradblr community 💔

Today is my last day in the Special Collections & Archives at Loyola University New Orleans. Like all last days, it is a day of reflection. I am reflecting on my newly found love for the Library of Congress Classification System, a greater sense of gentleness and gratitude when I am privileged enough to handle rare books, the cool finds that I documented on a Twitter thread, and the joy of working for an institution that provides access to the online resources and literature to my community.

This summer taught me that an organization’s archives can be paramount because they are the narrative of an institution--whether that is a city, an organization, or a small liberal arts college in New Orleans. An institution’s archives tell about the history of an institution: when a piece of property was purchased, the triumphs of students and professors, and minute and monumental changes over the years. For example, a letter confirming a meeting date between professors and an administrator might seem a little unnecessary to preserve, but without the most basic letters between two people, the context of a later and more important letter can be skewed.

Archiving an organization's documents helps create coherent meaning, provide value, and expand a narrative into a flowing historiography of an institution. Working with an organization’s archives may not be for all who are interested in librarianship, but it is a fundamental part of illustrating an institution’s history. I am grateful for my time spent in the archives. I truly believe my time spent here will be central to my future career as a librarian.

The Bookmarten

Saturday, 14th October So, it’s my first day of work at the library after almost four weeks of break. It felt a lot like a luxury, being my first real holiday since I started in September last year. It’s still quite quiet, just as I expected - the semester starts on Monday and every normal person is taking the last weekend of summer break off. There are only two people in my reading room and apart from dealing with their wishes, I have already sorted my schedule and found out where to get my reading lists. I know next week will be quite different, it usually fills up with the beginning of the semester, but for now I am bathing in quietness. Which is nice, actually. Only my keyboard seems very loud in this empty and silent room. I won’t get bored though, I’ve got some books to sort through and fix, and I do expect a few more users to come in. That’s what we librarians call you, by the way. Users. Funny word, if you ask me. Not that I am a real librarian, I’m just a student assistant, but I do get a bit of insight into the life of my coworkers. And interaction with you really is the highlight of a work day. If you are kind to us, we will reciprocate and be a little more loose on the rules, especially us student assistants (’cause we know the view from the other side of the counter). No funny stories so far though. Except for a very interesting e-mail from my boss, that the Büchermarder is active again. A Büchermarder (german, literally translates to bookmarten) is someone who pretends to study the books but really just cuts out bits and pieces of old and valuable books and sells them on the black market. One has been well known to do that, but never got caught, and apparently has appeared in a public library again, so we’re extra careful at the moment. All users in here right now are regulars though, so I’m not really worried right now. I really enjoy my job most of the time, especially the Saturdays, when I’m supervising the reading room. I can read through old books, be the cliché librarian shushing everyone and during semester I get quite a lot of homework done. And I can bask in one of my favourite things: scrolling through tumblr while making a serious face and pretending I’m solving a major issue in our library system.
