[Rdap] Data management and public services

[Abigail Goben]

Daureen,

Can you make direct correlations between what you are doing and what this
colleague considers "public service"  For us, that includes teaching,
consults, etc and to mimic what Margaret H said, a lot of places are
closing reference desks, transitioning how those are staffed. I don't sit a
desk anymore--my public service is instruction, consults, office hours,
meetings, email etc.  The subject of those may well be data, data
management, or not.  The activity is certainly there, it's mostly just the
content that we're changing. And we're supposed to be teaching across
content areas (choir, preaching, so on).

Good luck!

Abigail
