tuesday hours 3-16-10

2 hours-on tuesday i went back to the state library with an exact date for finding a picture in microfilm. parking was ridiculous, it must have been a busy day at the capitol because there was no parking to be found. after circling the block 400 times i was able to secure a spot and went in and found that picture but no new info. after i went to sac state and met shawna and dr. C in the museum to go over more exhibit setup.

visiting the state library 3-15

2 hours.-on monday i went downtown to the state library(2-4pm) to find info/picture on a certain L E Dawson. i looked through publications with pictures, all availabe 1970's UC Berkeley year books, and micorfilm. i did not have an exact date with me at the time so the microfilm was not going to yield any positive results. i didn't realize this until i started looking through it, but microfilm is very hard on the eyes!!

prepairing the exhibit

yesterday 3-10-10, i got together with my group  at 12pm for 1 hour to discuss our part of the exhibit setup. we went over and agreed on how we wanted our part of the exhibit to look before we presented it to the class.

3-10 hours

i have spent (4)four hours total this last weekend and yesterday researching info for my groups part of the exhibit process. i looked high and low for a pic of Larry Dawson but didn't find one anywhere. I thought I had it many times over and when i would search i would find a cite which would say something like "larry dawson-image..." but it was an image of an artifact or no image at all. i must have looked in a hundred books that had his name listed in them but no picture. i also spent some of the time reading and commenting on bloggs and planning our design and meeting times for group 3. we meet this morning to finalize the story board.
