Allow me to wish you a belated happy 2021. I hope your year has been getting off to a good start.
Since my temporary position with Ganondagan State Historic Site has come to its conclusion, I am volunteering while looking for long-term employment. In January I began volunteering at the Rochester Military History Society‘s museum and library. It’s a hidden gem in Rochester, NY which focuses on not only local heroes from various wars going back to the War of 1812, but also how local businesses have joined the war effort over the years. It has been very enjoyable thus far, and I look forward to continuing to help them.
In other news, I have begun to query journals for my paper on an Indigenous American cataloging scheme for libraries. I hope that I will be able to update you soon with someone who has chosen to publish it, but I will keep you apprised one way or the other.
