Hi Cathy, I enjoyed reading this post and your thoughts on reaching teens in library spaces. I particularly loved hearing about the graffiti event, what an awesome way to celebrate art, culture, and history while honoring the interests and expression of teens.
Libraries I have worked at have also faced the challenges of making teens feel welcome…[Read more] -
Elle commented on the post, Reflection: Hyperlinked Environments and What Happens When They Break, on the site 1 weeks, 2 days ago

I imagine that across the commonly banned books are stories that challenge patriarchy, heteronormativity, and racism. Perhaps challenging these…[Read more]

Hi Alana, Thanks for sharing! I love the idea of including more social spaces in library. I live in suburbs and I notice a kind of alienation that can occur here with limited walkable areas and poor public transit. I think many people in my community, myself included would benefit from accessible and public social spaces.

I am curious to learn more about the University of Rhode Island AI Lab, for its focus on ethical, social, and economic implications of AI. Fear of AI or excitement around AI seems to hinge greatly on one’s class position or the economic system in which it is employed. I am…[Read more]

@elle Yay for swimming in the ocean!
It would be very cool if you wanted to focus all of your work on community college librarianship or any amount of the assignments. I’d like to offer the opportunity for students to tailor make their work.
Welcome to #hyperlib!

@elle Amen to open access! I am thrilled you highlighted Fister’s ideas and applied them to your future practice.
Hi @elle,
I was drawn to your post as I have worked in information literacy for a long time and now am finding we’re doing more work to combine information literacy and digital literacy skills. As you noted from Fisher’s work and your observations, it’s about creation instead of just using information, and those skills carry over to all aspects of our lives. Open access and open educational resources are great movements to help promote lifelong learning!
