‘Do different’ has been my call of the week: in The Frankfurt Kabuff session with Beth Driscoll and Claire Squires at Society of Indexers #SIConf24#IndexSky

The UEA (University of East Anglia) coat of arms featuring an angel, a castle of three domes, three ancient crowns, two lion supporters, and the motto ‘DO DIFFERENT’.
A presentation slide, showing the front book covers of The Frankfurt Kabuff (by Blaire Squiscoll) and The Frankfurt Kabuff Critical Edition (Driscoll and Squires). Slide text reads:
Summing up
• Human qualities in indexing: creativity, empathy, flair, humour, insight, personality, understanding
• Computers help us index, but lack our qualities
• Make connections, everywhere
• Do different!
A small fabric patch on a hanging ribbon. It has a design featuring a yellow honeycomb pattern and bees, and the text:
This is Stockport.
We do things differently here…

Great busy week! The motto of one of my institutions is 'wisdom and knowledge', that I like. The other doesn't have one but Google AI informs me it does have a strategic plan! Trying to please yet again.
