You know, I used to think I was so good with technology. That is, until I tried the latest assignment for Intro to Tech. Scopus was being mean to mean and was not very user-friendly at first. I'm not sure what I was going wrong, but I finally got everything to go where I needed it to. Huge thanks to Tim for the how-to document! Whew! I have to say, though, that I did not see any way on Google Scholar for adding citations to RefWorks more than one at a time. For a project such as this, which required 50 or more citations, it took me a little while. Not very convenient considering I haven't gotten a mouse device for my laptop, so I had to do everything on it's tiny "mousepad". I survived. (obviously)
I have to admit, I cried a little bit last night. After watching the Intro to Tech lecture and starting the RefWorks project and having Scopus time-out on me (losing the list I had created), I was just so done. My wonderful fiance came through for me and rubbed my back for two hours while I went back to work. He's the best and I don't know what I'd do without him. I'm worried that I'm neglecting our dog, though. Poor Jo-Jo. There's so much schoolwork between these two classes and I'm afraid I can't catch up...
My adventures in the University of Pittsburgh's online Master's in Library Science Program, planning my upcoming wedding and subsequent marriage, raising our adorable puppy, a full-time job/career, and just life in general. Should be a fun ride!
