Why does yours show up with a nice preview @laurele and mine is just a boring link? 🙁

Hi @laurele I love your take-aways from the course! One of them made me chuckle, because it was advice I gave my son often during his formative year “Don’t be complacent”. In fact, it became a running joke between us, as he knew exactly when I would pull out that line. I even thought about using it in my symposium. I hear you about overthinking…[Read more]

Hi @laurele,
Honestly, I feel like it could be made more visible to tribal members. The Cultural Preservation Dept. and language portal are pretty buried. Maybe by design and for good reason, but that being said, I’ve shared with my family members who are not enrolled members and it is an invaluable resource for us. -

@laurele, lovely presentation! The design is polished and your sentiments and content are a wonderful wrap-up to the course. Well done. 👍 Gives me lots of inspiration for mine!

@laurele, Yes! Thanks for reading. I loved that quote too, but haven’t read Lacuna.

@laurele, thank you for highlighting this important work. Your report is well laid-out and very informative. My tribe, the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria, uses Mukurtu as a platform for learning Coast Miwok and Southern Pomo. I thought about doing my report on something like this as well, but then pivoted to something completely different! 😋

Well done, @laurele! Your page reads like a website and I like that it is succinct and provides lots of inspiration and information. I especially like your inclusion of Indigenous people and resources (as a Native person myself). What an interesting idea that can continue to evolve in a library!

@laurele This is amazing! I had not heard of Mukurtu at all and I am thrilled to learn this exists. In one of my archives class we talk frequently about the importance of cultural protocols for access to certain materials and I am so glad to see you discuss that here and that this CMS exists specifically to address that. The level of research…[Read more]

@laurele Isn’t it amazing how life’s burdens become lighter when shared? I love that you are passing your story and wisdom to other parents to help them feel less isolated and more empowered to tackle their challenges. Thank you for your comments!

@laurele A++ reference and I completely agree!

Laura Wecksler commented on the post, Dokk1 Library Overnight Readathon, on the site 3 weeks, 2 days ago
@laurele, I LOVE that you brought up that reference!! I keep seeing it crop up in circulation at work but had never read it as a kid. It was, however, a beloved TV movie of mine filmed in the 70s, but they called it “The Hideaways.” Here it is on YouTube if you’re interested (really funny costumes, funky music and a cameo of Madeleine Kahn):…[Read more]

@laurele this is a wonderful story about your connections to Half Moon Bay. I did that exercise yesterday with the library staff in Illinois and was very interesting when we debriefed: Most of the people said they imagine themselves outside or in nature. Most that shared said they were alone as well. Interesting.

@laurele, so interesting to think about! Each generation has their own idiosyncrasies and think our own is immutable. I’ve never felt like such an old foagie as I have since having an 11-year-old daughter (I’m 42). I’ll have to try the “heart hands” challenge with her. 🫶

@laurele this was so much fun. I also appreciate your candor and sharing where you have found yourself in life. The videos you shared were perfect for absolutely illustrating your points.

Michael Stephens commented on the post, Reflection Blogging: Hyperlinked Environments & Issues – AI & ChatGTP, on the site 1 months, 3 weeks ago
@laurele this is a perfect example of one of the things. I hope everyone takes away from this class. That idea of biting the bullet or diving into something that might make us a little bit uncomfortable, but really turns out to be a useful learning experience. What a great example to that you found inspiration for another class by using AI.…[Read more]

@laurele I love the connection you make between the packhorse library project and the hyperlink library. Absolutely. I hope your final paper goes well in INFO 285.

@laurele Same! I also love how much signage they have in each section. Ingenious idea to include markers for genres instead of guests having to guess where in the Dewey things are categorized.
