Joyce Valenza’s Neverending Search

Preparing to defend

April 21, 2007 · 3 Comments

This week I got a draft of my dissertation back from my chair. There is much to adjust before my defense on May 7th. And so, dear readers, for the next two weeks this blog is going to be a bit quiet. Please forgive me and wish me well. (And pray that I get over this flu-like stuff.)

Some good news:  When I get back to real life, my blog will join the others on the School Library Journal site. (I am hoping it will stay here as well.)
While I am gone, don’t forget to visit our TeacherLibrarianNing!  The action is really picking up.  Post your forum questions, your pics, your videos.  Put yourself on our Frappr map.

    No doubt you’ll dazzle the dissertation committee. Maybe I’ve missed it but hopefully you’ll share your topic and findings with all of us once you’re finished.

    Joyce, I know you will do just great (because you are awesome) but that doesn’t take away the nervousness and butterflies). We (all of your librarian friends) are all pulling for you! The best of luck, feel better and try to get lots of sleep- because I know to do all that you do - YOU DON’T SLEEP!

    Good luck Joyce. I am sure you will do fantastically well. We will all be rooting for you. Rest up, focus on your dissertation, and don’t worry about us. We will try to muddle along without you for awhile.
