Digitization & Content Specialist for Volunteer Voices:

I suspect my job title is a form of hazing, "Pledge, you will introduce yourself as Digit..."

I am a year removed from receiving my MLS at Emporia State University's School of Library and Information Management. I work for the University of Tennessee, but I live in Memphis and work out of the Memphis Public Library's History Department. Volunteer Voices is an IMLS grant funded project to create a digital resource using primary historical documents from across Tennessee. I work with institutions in the twenty-two counties that constitute West Tennessee in order to identify, scan, and catalog items for our database. Love my job, will be unemployed in December (contract gig).

This will be my first national convention. I have two goals: to remain well caffeinated and appear employable.
