This morning, Mary Jane met me in the IARC before 9:00AM. We had a meeting with Dr. Leimenstoll-
The meeting went extremely well; Dr. Leimenstoll wanted us to keep the scattered volumes of the National Trust for Historic Preservation in the library, as she uses them. That is not a problem, they just need to be labeled with their call number (E151 .H52) and placed on the shelves. Katherine Nunnally entered them into the catalog early in the semester, when I thought all of the items were going to be kept.
The best news is that I am able to weed items that I don't consider worth keeping; she did seem a little emotional, and acted as if she recognized some of the clippings (and took a few), but was not overly sentimental about what is to be kept in the library.
The rest of the morning was spent helping Mary Jane (who has a broken foot) weed items from the library. Many of the sample books (carpet, wall covering, flooring) were determined to not be “green,” and the department only wants to keep environmentally friendly materials for the students to use on projects.
I spent the afternoon starting to weed. Have to say, it felt great. I waited all semester for this day!
