Hi Karen and everyone else. I have had a very peculiar career stretching over 30 years ( and only now chartering!) Not only have I worked in a wide variety of libraries but in several other careers too. I sat down to arite my Introduction to my PDR and it quickly became nearly 1,000 words. Do you think this is too big a part of my PDR? I have only skated over the surface - honest! I have now written 4,000 words and am about to takle the most difficult bit - Professional Issues. I quite enjoyed writing what I have so far done. Another question- I have just been appointed to a new post. Do I have to write about that too? ( given that it will be about a month before I start). Shall I just skate over my career in the intro. and put it all into the CV? When I finish I think I'd like some criticism before I do a final print. Is there anyone in Dumfries & Galloway or Ayrshire who would be willing to give it a read once it's ready? I am a school librarian and a Route B candidate so I don't work with anyone I can ask. It's good fun really.
