Well, today I finalised my PPDP (personal professional development plan - if i remember correctly) which has to be sent off to CILIP so that I can register as a chartership candidate and work towards this over the next year. It is all quite exciting and I am lucky to be able to do this so quickly after graduation. My manager is my mentor, and she has been helping me put together a whole range of activities which I can do over the next year or so in order to develop my skills as an information professional. I’ll try to use this blog to discuss what I have been getting up to as well as the usual commentry and discussion on current events/research/news that I have been doing so far.
We have a placement student with us from the ILS course at the moment - i can hardly believe that it has been a whole year since that was me!!! How time flies…
I am also waiting to hear whether or not my dissertation will be published. It’s looking hopeful so far, and I am really excited about seeing my name in print (okay, so it’s not lights, but it’s still exciting!!!). I’ll let you know as soon as I do about that one!
