The Future Library is fascinating. I would add one more facet: The author who contributes a book also adds one chapter to a book that is being written over the 100 years.
-
Thank you for adding that facet Jeanna! I think that makes the Future Library that much more incredible. I also really like what the artist, Katie Paterson has to say of the artwork. “Future Library has nature, the environment at its core – and involves ecology, the interconnectedness of things, those living now and still to come. It questions the present tendency to think in short bursts of time, making decisions only for us living now.” It is a very reflective piece.

Hi, Roya! This was a fantastic and comprehensive summary of the course. I especially agree with #5 – the reflections were extremely useful and had me thinking and exploring my thoughts and experiences in combination with other classmates (including yours!) that I think overall really enlivened and expanded my understanding of what was already such robust content for each module, especially when it came to my own biases (I, in particular, was quite biased against AI, so it was cool to have that challenged by some of the course readings and reflections). Good job with this post!
-
@gilbertmaryjoy Hi Mary Joy, Thank you for your kind comments! I totally agree that with you that interacting with our colleagues through the reflection blogs expanded understanding of the course modules. Wishin you all the best in your future endeavors!
-
HI Roya,
Thanks for Sharing, These are excellent takeaways. It feels like an accurate summary of this class. -
@rodrigo. Thank you so much. Wishing you success in your future pursuits! Have a great summer!

Hi @royaflin. Great job on your video! I know I’m a bit last minute on my comments here but I really enjoyed it. I especially agree with you about this course representing my shared values of librarianship and libraries. And I loved your insight about collaboration making the impossible achievable. Thanks for sharing!

@michael Just for clarification — when you say “final reflection” do you mean our virtual symposium, the last of our reflection posts, or something else?
-
@michael Thanks for this reminder!

Hi @Michael, could you please clarify how we obtain the “activity URL”? I see when I hover over my name in the upper right corner, the ‘Activity’ option in the drop down. After hovering over it, do we go to ‘Personal’ and submit the URL for that page?
Thank you 😊 .-

@michael, this link is not working for me
-
@emmizo What link?
-
@michael, sorry, the three purple dots in brackets after the word “Post” do not expand
-
@emmizo Not understanding… where exactly?
-
@michael I am sorry for the hassle. From my perspective in Site-wide Activity, the Share and Symposium post has an ellipses after you write “please share your URL here. Post [. . .]” The brackets are purple and should expand and it does not for me. The rest of the message is not there. I hope this helps.
-
The “Share & Submit Your Symposium!” link is not working either; I guess that is the same one.
-
@emmizo That is the weirdest thing. It is a bad link to a long gone web site for the class. This is the place to share your post and then submit to Canvas. I will look into that weird link deal.

From Site Formerly Known as Twitter: LIS Jobs Advice for New Grads
This week I'm asking people who hire library and LIS workers: We are nearing Spring graduation time. What advice do you have for new MLIS holders? I'm thinking both about their first post-MLIS job hunt, and in future career moves?
— Hiring Librarians (@HiringLib) May 7, 2024
-
@Michael, I love that you refer to it as the “Site Formerly Known as…” 😂
It’s an interesting quandary–I wonder myself about what my next move will be after I receive the degree, but also hold in reverence the knowledge that things almost always do not turn out the way I envision or plan for them to.

🤣
Yes – it is a journey with the potential for twists and turns.

Hi @savannahpolizzi. I really enjoyed your video. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on your experience with this class. Your initial comments about your thought progression through the class resonated with me. When I started this class, I felt a bit overwhelmed by the number of ideas that were surfacing and being discussed. But each week and each assignment helped me focus my thoughts and find ways to translate the ideas and resources into actionable programs for my middle school library. I have no doubt your high school library will benefit from your focus.
-
Hi @maggierogers ! Thank you so much! I am sure your middle school library will benefit, as well! 🙂

@gilbertmaryjoy. Forgot to mention that you have a lovely narrating voice!

This was like listening to a beautiful and brief audiobook of the semester! Your narration is so great, as are the words you used to sum it all up. Thank you for sharing! 🙂

Thank you so much, Savannah!

@gilbertmaryjoy I loved how you summed up your overall experience into a poetry format combined with narration and visuals! The five minutes past by so fast when I was watching and really felt like I was coming in to sit in for a story time, it was very relaxing to watch and listen to your symposium! Thank you for sharing your experiences with us 🙂

I’m so happy you liked it! I tried my best to summon my inner “Miss Gilbert reading to her students” voice for this one. Glad it translated!

Hi Mary Joy,
Your inspiration report is well organized and thought out. The idea of using Minecraft for a participatory service is really modern and young at heart. So many young people play Minecraft. Your report reminded me of when players held a protest for Palestine on a Roblox server that made national headlines. So many good things can be accomplished in a collaborative game space.

This is really amazing. Seeing so many malls closing, spaces like those can be repurposed for community/arts centers like this one. I love it. I bet the later hours might be welcoming for people looking for a space to study, connect and relax before it’s time to head home and go to bed.

I tried a VR demo at Best Buy for the first time last weekend, and while I definitely got vertigo, I would LOVE to sit down and go on a tour through foreign places I’ve yet to visit, are about to visit, or want to remember from previous trips.
I personally don’t think virtual reality can replace the real thing, but there is definitely a use case for the technology. Like you mentioned, to “pre-visit” a place, which would be like viewing an immersive map, or to revisit a somewhere you’ve been. It would also be a great technology for those that may have accessibility problems.
