A/V Woman: November 2013
http://avwoman.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 20 November 2013. Radical Library Camp, 28th September 2013. I'm getting worse. It's nearly two months since Radical Library Camp. It's taken me far too long to write this thing up. But at last I have. I wasn't entirely sure what to expect from Radical Library Camp. My initial impression was something involving skateboards and neon, or perhaps something like this:. This post employs my usual blend of notes, reportage and personal opinion. The sessions we'll be looking at are. The desk has been...

http://avwoman.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 31 December 2013. Another lap of the Sun being done. On the 7th January, #uklibchat will be discussing New Year's Resolutions. Last year I submitted the following ambitions:. Write more; get involved; be more assertive; generally get stuck in. At the risk of pre-empting the twitter conversation, here's how I think I did:. This is my 18th post of 2013, compared with 21 posts in 2012, so I've not written more here. Have I written more elsewhere? Done is taken more notice of matters. Last week was ...

A/V Woman: Fun Beneath the Sheets
http://avwoman.blogspot.com/2015/05/fun-beneath-sheets.html
Sunday, 3 May 2015. Fun Beneath the Sheets. I've been loathed to type anything here for a while, cos it means shunting down that lovely still from Desk Set. But we can't stay stuck in the past forever, now, can we? Cue obligatory Librarian hand-wringing]. Query() is something approximating magic. Excel's pivot tables excite me immensely (now I know how to use them), but that joy is but a fraction of =query(). I built that generates a query function, applies it to a Google Sheet and brings back the result...

A/V Woman: March 2014
http://avwoman.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 26 March 2014. Marathon (or "Hello again, World."). Since the late 1990s I've been making things under the moniker A/V Woman. Most obviously my website, which itself is old enough to make babies. So here's one. Was being used by someone at the time, though maybe I'm making that up. Maybe I just wanted a further separation there. At the same time as setting up @SaintEvelin, I set up the Succentorship without Sneers 'blog: http:/ saintevelin.blogspot.co.uk/. You may now updated your bookmarks.

It's really quite a simple one too: repeated freeform motion path animations with the smoothing turned off. Right click and save-as to download a version of it (1.7M). Posted by A/V Woman.

A/V Woman: Hollywood Answered the Google Question in 1957
http://avwoman.blogspot.com/2015/03/hollywood-answered-google-question-in.html
Sunday, 1 March 2015. Hollywood Answered the Google Question in 1957. The new computer that's going to revolutionize the reference library of the Federal Broadcasting Network. The librarians looking at this great machine are about to get the pink slips from payroll that indicate their impending redundancy. The entire library has been rendered as machine code and fed into the computer, enabling it to retrieve in seconds an answer that took the woman in the black and red several weeks to ascertain. By way ...

A/V Woman: October 2013
http://avwoman.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, 6 October 2013. Working Lives of the Saints. Thanks to The Wikiman. I am aware of a thing. Another internet version of one of them foldy things. We used to make at school. Like a moth to the energy-saving lightbulb, I am compelled to complete. Academic Liaison Assistant (an assistant librarian). Mobile telephone (second generation) with a qwerty keyboard. A Lenovo laptop (Intel, 6. Windows 8), plus peripheral keyboard, mouse and monitor. One word that best describes how you work:. 1x mug of water.
