We got a new team member, Claire Gibney, in July 2020, so training someone online in ‘remote working’ times was a new experience for me. Years of justifying our existence in the traditional library world finally ended in acceptance – in fact, people wanted to know why we had not digitised more. Our user statistics also showed an increase in traffic, with everyone scrambling to locate as much digital primary source cultural heritage and research data as they could find. Our collection throughput went up, and we overhauled our Rights and Re-use Policy, to include the addition of Rights Statements (from ) and a new policy on sensitive material. My sincere thanks to the rest of UCD Digital Library team (Peter Clarke and Órna Roche) for all their hard work getting this ready and for its success. The UCD Digital Library was awarded the CoreTrustSeal in June 2020, (a renewal of sorts, as we previously had the Data Seal of Approval), and we celebrated demurely in the digital realm. I am not sure I will be able to return to in-person meetings without having a camera pointed at me, so I can see what I look like…in the meeting.

Telling people that they are on mute or that they have frozen are now perfectly acceptable everyday phrases – a momentary micro-break, allowing you to disconnect from the bustle of consecutive online meetings, with their confined windows of presence. However, I dislike that it cannot handle broadband issues, and that it has the audacity to tell me that I am unstable (it might be referring to my broadband, but still). I like the connections it facilitates and the information that can be shared. I appreciate all that it has enabled me to do. I like Zoom but only since I finally got a new work laptop that can handle it properly. Suddenly storage on my local machine became an issue. Data transfers felt like they took years.

A few things threw me initially: my five-year-old trusty personal laptop was suddenly getting lots of new software that it was not happy with, and it could not cope with the work that my higher spec workstation handles with ease there was no printer, which in hindsight, is probably a good thing I was battling neighbours for broadband my amazing colleagues were miles away the VPN connection was appalling and everything just changed.īeing immersed in the digital world meant I could transition most of my work easily enough, but suddenly everything became harder and slower to do. One minute I was in the building with all of my colleagues, putting a few things into Google folders for the two weeks we were going to be out of the office, and the next minute my office became a roving location in my house: first the kitchen, then the sitting room, and finally the spare room. UCD Digital Library went into ‘Work From Home’ mode on Friday 13 th March 2020, and it was quite a surreal transition.
