Thank you so much, @amanda! I’m so happy you found it valuable. I’m hoping that having an easier entry point into storytelling might make it more realistic for some people to try out!

@amanda I love the idea of a human library so much! I think of the diverse student body at my college and what we could learn from one another including faculty and staff. I like the theory that it would stop and make us think and “unjudge” one another by challenging stereotypes and biases. The power of stories to move people to emotion, and…Read more

@Amanda I really appreciate your last paragraph that approaches artificial intelligence with the viewpoint of an information professional and a positive approach to this seismic shift.

@amanda thank you for all of your ideas. Yes, I also agree that it’s important to develop hobbies and finding time to do them. I often times see them as distractions when I am in the deep of it and feel like I can only enjoy them once I am done with something. I really do love all of the typical hobbies like reading, cooking, baking, taking walks,…Read more

@amanda, I enjoyed reading your post about connection and exploration. It made me think about my days in college and while the internet was still growing and the physical collection still had more of a role in research, those librarians were extremely helpful and also knew the value of connection back then.
I agree with exploration that…Read more

@amanda I work in an academic library as a subject librarian. I love the idea of encouraging students to explore (especially new topics), but I’m not sure how to practically go about it, as I’m not the person giving assignments. When a student comes to me for help, I do show them a variety of sources and discuss the exploratory nature of the…Read more

@Amanda I’m glad you took a look at academic library specifically for this reflection post. I like your ideas and how they connect to your own history with academic libraries as well as our resources. I appreciate your use of the exploration article as well.

@Amanda So nice to read that quote that closed your reflection. Absolutely, 100%. And I so agree with your explorations here. And to give Clinker all the respect, I would also say, and I believe I saw this in another blog already today, that stories told in other media can be just as impactful.
