@kauthmeister so many good ideas here. I will hone in on your point about Google glass and your father. I recall sitting across from a library colleague at a conference many years ago and he had glasses on and I thought it was the most off-putting thing.
My hope is that any mobile application we create or any online web-based application we…[Read more]

Maverick – this is right on target and so important to consider. I appreciate everything you highlighted regarding refugees finding a place in the library. I think this is one of the things I want everyone to take away from this class is that everyone should feel like they belong in libraries.

@gilbertmaryjoy thank you for this essay on galleries and museums. It’s one of the most interesting spaces to me right now where change is happening. I appreciate the examples you shared — they resonate. The exhibits and interactive experiences you highlight are important for people to see and understand. I hope we see more and more of this…[Read more]

@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]

@lauraw I ❤️ this so much!
The picture of you on the funicular was delightful. Thank you for that.
I really appreciate what you shared about your travels when you were young. How wonderful and I can see how it can have an impact on you now and also be amazing memories. If I could, I would take us on a field trip to Dokk1 for sure.

@jeanna I was super thrilled to learn about all the various permutations of the concept of the library bar. I am in for a nice glass of red anytime I happen upon one of these places. You share some very interesting ideas as well about what this means for libraries and welcoming people into our spaces. Cheers.

@donna128 This is great! I so appreciate your rumination on AI and chat GPT in particular. I have experimented a bit here and there and I agree with you about it very useful for brainstorming or getting ideas of what something might look like. Too often it sort of repeats itself. If you don’t ask correctly and I can tell the language is not…[Read more]

@colleen that quote is a powerful one and could actually apply to libraries all over the world. It’s a good thing to think about as we plan for our communities.

@christines you included some amazing photos in this post about various information environments, and what is possible with technology. I’ve always found the hunt library model to be so impressive. The self guided Trail application via a QR code is super cool. QR codes have come a long way.

Hyperlinked Job Description – "You have Curiosity…focused energy…" Hey all – this job was posted at Denver Public Library a few years ago. The description is gone but it was very interesting. Here’s a BIG […]

As I was reading the job description, I could not help but think about the librarians and other coworkers whom I have to work within a Library.
As you said at the end, professors show what a Liberian is in 2024. For some people who are not familiar with a Librarian job, it may sound overwhelming. For many of us, It gives a more accurate description of everything.
“Assist teams to obtain resources, develop and evaluate experiments, negotiate conflicts, measure and replicate success, learn from failures, analyze and communicate results, and ultimately operationalize services or resources.” It summarizes nicely how our work goes beyond books and programs.
