A day in the life of…NBL’s Library Director
Many hands, skills, ideas and collaborations are needed to keep New Brunswick Libraries moving forward. We are a large enough organization that almost none of us are aware of the roles each of us plays. I’d like to help change that by sharing typical, or snapshot, days of various NBL employees. When we each bring our best self to Rutgers, we create a truly special place. I started with a day of my own: Tuesday, November 6. What did I do? See below.
4:00 am: Rise
4:30 am: Begin a load of laundry
4:40 am: Morning workout routine
6:00 am: Complete workout, hang delicates
6:30 am: Leave house, go to polls
7:00 am: Vote, head to diner for breakfast
8:00 am: Arrive at work and prepare for day
9:30 am: Strategic planning interview
10:30 am: Budget meeting
11:30 am: HR meeting
1:00 pm: Strategic planning interview
3:00 pm: Special Libraries Association Executive Board call
4:00 pm: Rutgers University Aresty Center planning meeting
5:00 pm: Strategic planning data prep
6:00 pm: Head home

9:00 pm: Time for sleep
I hope to reach out and highlight the days of many people across our organization. Would you like to volunteer? Let me know!
Cheers, Dee
