Each year brings new challenges, and I couldn't ask to work with better people: faculty, staff, and students alike.]]> 2020-08-11 18:48:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jbell150/BellackLibraryDirector/wish/676148567 jbell150 https://padlet.com/jbell150/BellackLibraryDirector/wish/676158838 I live in Roslindale with my incredible family and 3(!) cats. I just sent my oldest off to college in Seattle, which means my life is in for some pretty major changes. ]]> 2020-08-11 18:55:27 UTC https://padlet.com/jbell150/BellackLibraryDirector/wish/676158838 jbell150 https://padlet.com/jbell150/BellackLibraryDirector/wish/676248672 The staff of the Bellack Library is here to help students with all of their information needs.]]> 2020-08-11 20:03:18 UTC https://padlet.com/jbell150/BellackLibraryDirector/wish/676248672 jbell150 https://padlet.com/jbell150/BellackLibraryDirector/wish/676257794 https://library.mghihp.edu]]> 2020-08-11 20:09:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jbell150/BellackLibraryDirector/wish/676257794 jbell150 https://padlet.com/jbell150/BellackLibraryDirector/wish/676259272 We love questions!

Especially interesting are our guides to Community Health Topics. ]]> 2020-08-11 20:13:19 UTC https://padlet.com/jbell150/BellackLibraryDirector/wish/676262253 jbell150 https://padlet.com/jbell150/BellackLibraryDirector/wish/685967333 and for a bigger version of the Research Roller Coaster image...]]> 2020-08-18 20:20:54 UTC https://padlet.com/jbell150/BellackLibraryDirector/wish/685967333 jbell150 https://padlet.com/jbell150/BellackLibraryDirector/wish/714532541 Heaven knows the library budget is not limitless. Figuring out what you need to support your scholarship is one of my biggest challenges. I look at capstone reference lists, interlibrary loan requests, and get lots of input from faculty in an attempt to identify emerging needs as well as areas that might not need as much support anymore. Feel free to reach out if you see an area that could use more attention. My wishlist is ever-growing!]]> 2020-09-02 12:06:25 UTC https://padlet.com/jbell150/BellackLibraryDirector/wish/714532541 jbell150 https://padlet.com/jbell150/BellackLibraryDirector/wish/714542449 Too obvious?]]> 2020-09-02 12:12:03 UTC https://padlet.com/jbell150/BellackLibraryDirector/wish/714542449 jbell150 https://padlet.com/jbell150/BellackLibraryDirector/wish/714556830 I have many favorites like the Museum of Bad Art in Somerville and La Specola in Florence. One of my all time favorites and one I've returned to several times, is Walter De Maria's Earth Room, a second floor apartment in Manhattan's Soho neighborhood filled with dirt. ]]> 2020-09-02 12:19:45 UTC https://padlet.com/jbell150/BellackLibraryDirector/wish/714556830 jbell150 https://padlet.com/jbell150/BellackLibraryDirector/wish/714582853 It seems like travel always involves a lot of paper: tickets, tourist maps, receipts, etc. I'm a bit of a pack rat by nature; so I couldn't just throw it all away when I returned home. So now I take it all and make a visual representation of my trip. Here's one from a recent trip to see the Clash's London Calling exhibit at the Museum of London (please forgive my poor snapshot). ]]> 2020-09-02 12:32:13 UTC https://padlet.com/jbell150/BellackLibraryDirector/wish/714582853 jbell150 https://padlet.com/jbell150/BellackLibraryDirector/wish/2193090092 Helping people with the methods and analysis of scoping and systematic reviews is a great part of my job. It's a chance to be more intimately involved with the research than the work of supporting literature searching. If anyone is thinking of pursuing this type of project, please don't hesitate to get in touch!]]> 2022-05-20 14:28:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jbell150/BellackLibraryDirector/wish/2193090092
