Week 11 Reflection: Final Project Week One

I am excited about what I have put together in a proposal for the final project for this class. Weeding in libraries is something that is difficult to teach and get people to do; there is a great weeding manual available for free online, but it is lengthy and not always easily accessible while you are weeding in the stacks. Having a mobile app to learn about the method, and also quickly access the weeding criteria for different library sections would be quite useful. I am looking forward to bringing together lots of things we’ve learned over the course of this class to build this app. It’s going to be complicated, but will be practical and useful. If I succeed in building it, I hope to provide access to it for other librarians.
