Oh, that guy? He’s Thatcher Wine. He helps people create libraries full of books they’ll never read.
But enough about him! I’ve finally managed to pull together a full draft of my “Libraries, Archives, & Databases” syllabus! I”m still weighing some reading options, and I have yet to nail down the assignments — but at least I’ve got all 15 weeks, and two field trips, mapped out. I can’t even begin to tell you how long it took me to get to this point.
If you’re enrolled in the class, I welcome your feedback. Even if you’re not enrolled in the class, I’d love to hear your comments.

I am a first year MLS student at the University of Maryland, College Park iSchool and I am so inspired by your work. I promise to comment more on this provocative class you’re offering in the very near future. Suffice it to say that I have really enjoyed the observing the process of your designing the syllabus.
Thanks very much, James! I’m glad to have made your acquaintance.
I finally got around to reading this and I must say I’m even more excited than I was previously for this class to get under way. I don’t have any real comments or improvements other than I really like the assignments (having an option for the mid-term assignment is cool) and I can’t even begin to think about what I’m going to do for the final project. Last semester’s UMA class has given me some ideas though…
Looking forward to it!
Thanks, Darrell!
