#GirlsWithToys proves women belong in science 

In a recent interview a CalTech scientist, said, “Many scientists, I think, secretly are what I call ‘boys with toys’” The only problem? Not all scientists are boys — and women around the world let him know. This is so much more than a hashtag.

Spoopy books.

And I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren’t for you meddling kids!

Citation managers for systematic reviews

Hey there, fellow medlibs! Which citation management software do you use for systematic reviews? What do you like / dislike about it?

Just sent off my first manuscript to a peer-reviewed journal. This is my current mood.

Planning a CE event for local #medlibs

This is more involved than I thought. Thankfully I have the rest of the exec of local chapter of CHLA to help. OVHLA Mini Symposium is this Thursday! Super exciting, because this is the biggest thing the chapter has planned. We have 7 speakers (posters, sessions and lightning talks) and another 10 people planning to attend. That’s pretty much most of our membership (small community). Wish me luck!

I need to make a medlibs limerick.

There once was a museum position/ That had a peculiar mission/ Showing specimens found/ And research abounds/ Gave the world increased science vision

now every time someone asks me what my job is I’m going to answer them in limericks

Creating a new Fossil Hall takes a lot of work, especially with all of the #PrattKeeping. Just another day in the office for the Museum of Natural History’s Dinosaur Curator, Matthew Carrano.

Oh, laptop, my laptop

When you crash and die an untimely death as I am saving your settings and syncing passwords to keep.

I don’t know how many passwords I’ve had to reset today because of this with the new laptop.

Where my #tumbrarians at?

Hi everyone!

Are you, or do you know other #tumbrarians? I’m a #medlib (well, #canmedlib, really) and I’m looking for tumblr buddies.

Anyone I should be following?

Thanks!

#Tumbrarian in training!

I’m just going to keep bragging about our High School Intern.

Could this be called art therapy? I kinda love it, except I lack any visual art skills, so it’s just frustrating.

Even in a female-dominated career, we’re still told this.

Just submitted!

Just emailed off my first little article for MLA News to the editor of the Social Media column! Super excited, but also super nervous. Look for it in the August issue!
