#11 on my December bookspin.
bailedWell, I‘m flying through my Spooktober pile, mostly because I‘m DNF‘ing a lot. This book fell flat. It was both so convoluted and yet… had nothing happening.

Sometimes being drawn in by the cover doesn‘t work out.

“With competing organizational resources and priorities, raising the visibility of and communicating RIM program development with senior management, decision-makers, and other stakeholders can be challenging.

“The application of Lean practices in a real-world records management environment created great opportunities for team building and continuous process improvement in several processes of the operational records program.”
“The UW-Madison Records Management Program will continue to educate employees regarding their responsibility for management of records and best practices.”
pickA very straightforward and approachable introduction to maintaining an archive. This is a book that I will continue to turn to as a reference.
“Yes, archival work is challenging, but it is very rewarding. My hope is that this book will help provide you with the foundation for a successful career as a professional archivist.”
The car is in the shop for a much-needed oil change and brake check. How, oh how, will I pass the time? 😁
