Work Day #2

Today was my second day of work and let me tell you there is so much to do! There are over 3,000 digital note cards that hold records of works that Frank O'Connor has published, reviewed, interviewed etc. My job is to go through these note cards one by one and decipher the handwriting on each card. Next I have to enter the card number and the publication information into the computer. Eventually this information will be put onto the Internet under Frank O'Connor's bibliography. There are so many steps to this process and it is going to take a lot of time, patience and effort. I am very grateful to Dr. Murphy assisting me and guiding the process. I am also receiving a Frank O'Connor biography to look over while I work on this project so I can become more familiar with his writing...by the time I leave Cork I will be a Frank O'Connor expert! Well, at least I hope so. My work went well today and tomorrow I am meeting with Dr. Murphy's partner on the project, Dr. Lennon. We are going to go over more details about Frank O'Connor and continue to go through the digital note cards. All is well in Cork and I am having a wonderful time.

Peace and Blessings
