Day 1 - Introduction and Overview

May 4th, 10am-4pm

I began my internship by meeting with Amy Hatfield and Nancy Eckerman, the two librarians with whom I will be working this summer. We discussed scheduling and where I would be working. I was given an overview of the Public Health Digital Library project and a general idea of my role (metadata template design and metadata creation). We went over a list of general goals for the summer and more specific goals for the next few weeks in terms of researching and creating a template for the public health metadata. I spent the remainder of the data gettting to know the digitization process that would be used, looking over the physical documents that will be used, and understanding the community/collection framework for the project in Dspace.
