			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve updated the <a title="Education and Library Services" href="http://jossisahottie.com/kimberlyhirshdotcom/education-and-library-services/">Education and Library Services</a> page to include a link to a <a title="Kerry Madden Virtual Exhibit" href="http://kerrymadden.wikispaces.com">virtual author exhibit</a> which I recently created about <a title="Kerry Madden" href="http://www.kerrymadden.com">Kerry Madden</a>.  Kerry is one of my favorite authors writing for children today.  I had the good fortune of attending her book release party for <em>Jessie&#8217;s Mountain</em> a couple of years ago and it was a delight to meet her.  I hope this author exhibit prompts you and/or your students to seek out her work.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So I&#8217;ll be using this space to chronicle my journey through <a href="http://sils.unc.edu">library school</a> over the next couple of years, because that&#8217;s pretty much what my life is going to be.  We had orientation today, where I learned some new things and had old learnings reinforced.  I&#8217;m looking forward to the first day of class tomorrow, though I suspect I&#8217;ll have a terrible time getting to sleep tonight because I&#8217;ll be so excited.</p>
<p>My course schedule this semester includes:</p>
<ul>
<li>Human Information Interactions</li>
<li>Information Tools</li>
<li>The School Library Media Center</li>
<li>Young Adult Literature and Related Materials</li>
</ul>
<p>I&#8217;m also working as a Graduate Assistant for <a href="http://www.learnnc.org">LEARN NC</a>.</p>
<p>I plan to talk here about my experiences and the issues we deal with in class.  My reactions to the readings for the YA Lit class will be recorded at <a href="http://lectitans.livejournal.com">lectitans</a>, my reading blog.  I don&#8217;t plan to talk about any issues I might have in my personal relationships at school, so please don&#8217;t expect that.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I do a lot of blog reading, in topics including blogging, craft, educational technology, fashion, video games, children&#8217;s and young adult literature, organization, personal branding, personal development, personal finance, productivity, and writing.  Via a post on the <a href="http://personalbrandingblog.com/7-ways-to-land-great-consulting-work-while-in-between-jobs/">Personal Branding Blog</a>, I found this excellent post: <a href="http://twentyset.com/you-don%E2%80%99t-need-a-blog-topic-just-start-writing/">You don&#8217;t need a blog topic.  Just start writing.</a></p>
<p>I&#8217;m forever starting new blogs on niche topics.  Currently I have them on the topics of craft/design, personal development, reading, and theatre.  But I&#8217;ve felt a new project coming on, and Monica&#8217;s post inspired me.  Her advice:</p>
<p><strong>Write about what you&#8217;re learning.</strong></p>
<p>I&#8217;m learning all the time.  It is my favorite thing to do.  So here at kimberlyhirsh.com, that&#8217;s what I&#8217;m going to do: write about what I&#8217;m learning.  This may fall under any of the categories about which I read.  Learning is always bringing in something new, and will always give me plenty about which to write.</p>
<p>So welcome.  I hope you learn from my learning!</p>
