Course Reflections So Far

I am taking LIBR 202 – Information Retrieval and LIBR 287 – The Hyperlinked Library.   The first is a core class and the later is a cool class.   I have a deep down desire to learn more about fundamental library services like cataloging, reference and searching.   LIBR 202 and the other core classes will teach me about these fundamentals but I am constantly inspired by the Hyperlinked Library class.  I come to work with ideas from LIBR 287 more so than from the core class.  The Hyperlinked Library course is current, taking on topics such as participatory services which I can see needing encouragement to grow at the Del Webb.  I know the fundamentals are important and the group project is fun but my other class generates far more ideas.
