Summer week 4
This week ultimately not
much happened, we finished scanning the smaller items inside the 47-50
scrapbook. Honestly I spent more time this week preparing to lead discussion
and find a paper topic for Dr.Larson’s class then we did on the internship this
week. Besides the scanning I tried to set up a meeting with Jeff Cavero so that
Kelsey can talk with someone more experienced with the metadata than I am, he
in turn requested I look over the notes he gave us for last semester’s notes
that I have not found the time to do yet. So ideally next week we will be able
to meet with Jeff and work out a plan for how to split the work on this
scrapbooks metadata sheet. Once I talk
more with Mike Shier the current plan is to work on editing the images so that
they can be combined into a PDF, which will in turn be turned into a flipbook
as last semester’s scrapbook was. It is likely
that the metadata will take a longer time with this scrapbook, it is almost a
full book compared to the one that was finished last semester. However last semester Levi did most of the
metadata due to his scheduling making it impossible for him to come up and work
on Photoshop or scanning more often than not, this semester I think splitting
the work will be easier since we won’t both more or less be working on separate
parts of the project and there seems (so far at least) to be less scheduling conflicts
that will leave one person working more on one part of the project than the
other. I anticipate that more work will be done next week once the initial meetings are set up and finished, metadata and Photoshop can both be a time consuming process.
