      1. Excited that this morning I'm going to be presenting about MARC to a completely "non-librarian" audience as more of history of technology thing and I think it could be really fun!

      so basically I'm getting into the leader/fixed fields, indicators, and subfields as efficiencies in the various functions they perform, giving them just a peak at the long set of numbers up front that are a "map" to where each field can be found, etc.

      update -- it went really well!! There was lots of time for Q&A which I hope I did well. I recorded it, so I'll try to get it onto youtube and caption it soonish!

        (in part I hope I did the Q&A well in a way that makes sense for the video and if you couldn't see the chat)

          Just put up a copy of my #SummerSchool / #WinterSchool talk in YouTube with full captions + the text of most questions from the chat & timecoded links to the reply, so if you're not 100% sure about what I'm replying to, you can scroll down and find it! bit.ly/3Bkuu9o

            the actual talk is just under 20 minutes -- there's lots of Q&A time, so you can stick around if interested but also I think I got through it mostly in the 20 min!
