Competency D
This competency demonstrates my ability to integrate planning, management, marketing, and advocacy to design and sustain effective information services. Through projects in archival policy, programming, and digital engagement, I apply structured workflows and strategic communication to improve access, usability, and visibility. My work reflects a shift from organizing information to actively shaping how it is experienced and valued within an organization.
Competency F
This reflective e-portfolio entry examines my development of Competency F during my MLIS program at San José State University. Competency F focuses on the selection, evaluation, organization, and preservation of both physical and digital information objects. Through three artifacts—a preservation analysis of silk textiles, a digital photograph preservation project, and a finding aid for a digital animation collection—I demonstrate how these principles guide responsible collection stewardship. Together, these projects illustrate how archival theory and collection management practices support the long-term preservation and accessibility of cultural heritage materials.
