Monday (April 6) was the sixty-first day of my internship, and I did scan work after Nathan Gregg scanned more than one-hundred newspaper pages. While he was doing that, I made sure to get as much homework done as possible so I would be less stressed. Although my shift was much more tedious than usual, I did not have any major issues throughout. Tuesday (April 7) was the sixty-second day of my internship, and I did metadata work.
