web publishing
projects
Transplanted Goose
My personal web site. Mostly a place to share photos and experiences
with family and build a digital gallery of my creative efforts.
Perhaps one of these days I'll finally start blogging, as well, but don't
count on it.
Library Instruction
Publications
This is a small, independent publisher who focuses on library
instruction. Marilyn needed a web site; I wanted copies of her
publications. It's been a great partnership.
NewBreed Librarian
No longer being published, but in its heyday it was a daily news log
and bimonthly webzine intended to foster a sense of community for those
new to librarianship, whether in school or just out. The webzine offered
feature articles and interviews, as well as profiles of progressive
librarians and other information professionals, an advice column, and
a technology column. It was the brainchild of
Juanita Benedicto, my frequent partner in crime at the time, and is archived
in the University of Oregon's
institutional repository, where we were both working at the time we
created and developed the site.
Web Publishing Curriculum Resources
Workshop outlines, resources for web publishers, and tools. Developed for
the University of Oregon community, but has been used widely by others.
The Naked
Researcher (note: disappeared from web site)
A virtual exhibit celebrating curiosity and the pursuit of new
ideas, The Naked Researcher looks at both the research process
and the information environment. It also features a series of faculty
interviews that reveal the motivation and practices of these
professional researchers. The exhibit was conceived and developed
in partnership with Robin Paynter, Reference Librarian, and
accompanied a physical exhibit in Knight Library (February 1-March
24, 2003).
Feminist Voices & Visions from the Pacific Northwest
A virtual exhibit in celebrating of Women's History Month featuring
two of the Library's manuscript collections: the Duniway Family
papers, including those of suffragist and publisher Abigail Scott
Duniway (1834-1915), and the award-winning CALYX, a journal
of art and literature by women. The virtual exhibit accompanied an
exhibit in Knight Library (March 9-May 29, 1998).
Heather Ward,
Humanities Librarian, University of Oregon, developed the original
concept for this site, and we worked together on its implementation.
Under Western
Skies: Ernest Haycox and the West in Fiction & Film
A virtual exhibit featuring Ernest Haycox (1899-1950), one of the
most prolific writers of "western" fiction. His story, "Stage to
Lordsburg," became the movie Stagecoach, which made John
Wayne a star (my Dad's a huge John Wayne fan). Haycox's westerns
often went beyond the formula fiction of silent cowboys with smoking
guns and swooning women. His male heroes wrestled with human problems,
women were presented as individuals, and historical material was true
to the record. The virtual exhibit originally accompanied an exhibit
mounted in Knight Library (January 31-May 31, 2000).
