Marta Crilly holds a MA in History, and a Masters in Archives Management from Simmons University. She worked as an Archivist for the city of Boston and is now Head Librarian, User Engagement & Burns Library Public Services at Boston College. This is what she has to say about the talk. Memory is a key aspect of both individual and community identity. Join us to consider how communities form and maintain memory, how community memory can be erased or falsified, and why remembering together is especially significant for Christian communities.

Last year, the American Library Association reported a 20% increase from the previous year in efforts to ban books in the US in both school and public libraries. As WYPR education reporter Bri Hatch reported, 148 titles were challenged in Maryland last year, which made our state one of more than a dozen states to exceed one hundred banned books. Maryland is one of the states with laws that require specific criteria for removing books from libraries, and which protect library personnel who act within that criteria. Dr. Sonia Alcántara-Antoine, the CEO of the Baltimore County Public Library and the President of the board of the Public Library Association, joins Midday to discuss censorship, the future of the county's public library system and her summer reading list for young and old.

This week on Seasoned, we're talking with people connected to our state's libraries who mix their work with a passion for food, drink and community. The downtown branch of the Hartford Public Library may be closed for renovations, but that hasn't stopped Andréa Hawkins and Doug Barber from opening up a coffee shop on the light-filled first floor of the library. They talk with us about how the shop fosters community. And, pairing wine with cheese and charcuterie is too obvious. What wine might pair with Virginia Woolf's Orlando? How about Madame Bovary or Anna Karenina? Shannon Barillari, of the Russell Library in Middletown, talks with us about how she pairs wine with books. Plus, how does Youth Services Librarian Kristen Slepecki get kids excited about the library's Teen Test Kitchen program? "I bribe them with food," she says. "Sugary treats are, for sure, the way to go." We talk with Kristen and Christine Michaud, the Durham Library's director, about the intrinsic value of the library's Cookbook Club, which is part book discussion, part pot luck. Also, some city and town libraries in our state have what's called a Library of Things. Home cooks, ask your librarian if you can borrow a Barbie cake pan, cookie cutters, an air fryer, rice cooker or pizza oven! Bridget Quinn, President and CEO and Head Librarian at the Hartford Public Library describes the awesomeness of the Library of Things. GUESTS: Andréa Hawkins and Doug Barber: Co-owners of Berkins on Main, the coffee shop on the first floor of the Hartford Public Library. They also own Berkins Blend Cafe in Glastonbury, Conn. Shannon Barillari: Head of Digital and Emerging Technologies, Russell Library, Middletown, Conn. Christine Michaud: Director of the Durham Public Library and the leader of the library's Cookbook Club. Kristen Slepecki: Youth Services and Teen Librarian at the Durham Public Library. She runs the Teen Test Kitchen program, where teenagers participate in fun taste tests and make edible experiments. Bridget Quinn: President and CEO, and Head Librarian, of the Hartford Public Library. Interested in the book and wine pairings Shannon Barallari suggests?

Through her focus on creating responsive systems of access for researchers and racing fans around the world, Keeneland Library's research services volume doubled during Roda's tenure as Head Librarian – a position she previously held.

Roda returned to Keeneland Library in 2022 to curate the library's exhibit, The Heart of the Turf: Racing's Black Pioneers, and its educational programs and materials. The exhibit's programs for youth and adults reached record-breaking audiences for the library in 2023, and Roda will continue to work with industry and community partners to provide educational programs and travel the exhibit across the country. Roda began her new role as Director of the Library in the fall of 2023 with goals to grow and preserve the Library's world-renowned collections and research services and to expand its outreach efforts to meet the evolving needs of its global patron base.
"Hi, this is Nigel, the showrunner and lead writer for Among the Stacks. Among the Stacks is a podcast set in an infinite library outside of time and space, which contains every version of every story from every universe; and it follows the Head Librarian, S., who, all of a sudden, one day wakes up and all of their colleagues have disappeared, and so they have to delve deep into the secrets of this infinite library to try and find out where they've gone. What you're about to hear is one of our pre-season episodes, a prelude called 'You know they're playing it somewhere, but you have to find it', which we're really proud of. We think it's probably one of our strongest episodes, the sound design and the acting in it is just fantastic. We wanted to try and do a story where something was hunting was hunting two people, but you couldn't see them, they were only being told it by a mysterious voice on a radio. Going into it, just be warned, there are content warnings for Conflict, Disagreement Between People, Threat (both real and implied), Being Hunted, sound effects of Glass Shattering, Screaming, Being Isolated, Distress Calls, Vocal Distortion, Static, Repetition, Fear of Death, Character Death, Descriptions of Harm, Animal Cruelty mentions, and Gore sound effects. We really hope that you enjoy this. I don't know what else everyone else is saying, but we just hope you enjoy it. We hope that this gives you a taste of what Among the Stacks is, and that you like that taste. Thank you very much, on with the show!" cw: "Vocal Distortion, Conflict, Disagreement between People in a Relationship, Threat (Implied and Depicted), Loss of Bodily Autonomy (Implied), Being Hunted, Isolation, Glass Shattering (SFX), Screaming, Distress Calls, Static, Repetition, Death, Existentialism, Threat, Character Death, Descriptions of Harm, Gore (SFX), Animal Cruelty (Mention and Depiction), Missing Children, Loss of a Child, Parental Neglect, Profanity, Book Burning (Mention), Memory Loss, Destruction, Falling, Existential Dread, Unreality, Cults, Chanting, Alcohol Use, Drug Use (Implied), Fighting, Monsters, Gun (Mention), Knife (Mention), Being Held Against One's Will, Loss of a Loved One, Animal Death, Torture (Implied), Discussion of Violent Death" Transcript can be found at: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1cRyEbT8PnxIdsdSQYDzyvVMVBUYnc76xlSEG16nxVI8/edit?usp=sharing https://www.amongthestackspodcast.com Socials: https://www.tumblr.com/amongthestackspodcast

Coetzee, Kazuo Ishiguro, Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Michael Ondaatje, among others. We met via Zoom to discuss his role as director of a special collections library; where Martin Amis is, and Christopher Hitchens, Clive James and other members of their group. About fighting oblivion; about the value and challenges of email archives and negotiating or not negotiating with Andrew Wylie; about Texan "nationalism," and the goals of attracting books and people, and developing a "civilization;" about diversity, and hiring practices and collection development policies; about cataloguing, bureaucracies, acquisitions, books bridging political divides, the Gotham Book Mart, sweet little exhibition catalogues, and much more.

Mitzi Budde, D.Min. is Head Librarian and the Arthur Carl Lichtenberger Chair for Theological Research.
Today's guest, Carolyn Waters, recounts the big moment of crisis when she realized the career she had spent 20 years building may not have been the life she was meant to live. In spite of her fears of leaving an established career behind and the fear she may never find her path, on this episode, you'll hear the outcome of how this one step into the unknown, ended with her finding a surprising new career and life, both of which may have been what was intended for her all along. Carolyn tells Yuliana about leaving her longstanding career in financial services to take a self-imposed sabbatical, where she gave herself six months to read, travel, explore, and get back in touch with everything she loved to do. This led her to volunteer at the New York Public Library, which ultimately became her salvation as she decided to pursue her Masters degree in Library Science from the Pratt Institute, and she is now the Head Librarian at the New York Society Library. Carolyn talks about what it was like to make a dramatic career change in her 40s, how much more rewarding her work is now that she is on her life's path, and finding a healthy work/life balance as she takes on more challenges and responsibilities in her new profession. She shares the emotional story of her husband's Stage 4 Melanoma diagnosis, how they overcame this difficult time in their lives, and the ways in which this experience shaped her worldview moving forward. Carolyn encourages listeners to take the opportunity to self-reflect if they are unhappy in their current circumstances, and that in doing so, this could lead to the path they're truly meant for. Carolyn's inspired story of reinvention is a beautiful representation of our capacity to rebuild and reimagine as women, and shows us that it's never too late to create a new journey in this life, and discover where we're really supposed to be. Episode Highlights: Carolyn worked in financial services for many years and finally got the point where she felt she had to do something else Despite spending 20 years working toward this career, she quit after slowly building up to her breaking point and coming up with a plan for her next step She gave herself six months to read, travel, explore, volunteer, and get back in touch with what she really loved to do She found herself at the New York Public Library often, began volunteering there, and that experience ultimately became her salvation Carolyn is now the Head Librarian at the New York Society Library Library school is a process of understanding information systems, how to find systems, how to catalog systems, and find very specific information Carolyn's work ethic from her previous career translated to her new profession She wanted to make this big change to create a better life for herself, with a healthier work/life balance Even when she has challenging days, she reminds herself that it's so much more rewarding than what she was doing before, and it was the right thing to do She is inherently drawn to solitude as a librarian, but also has a very public-facing role Her husband was diagnosed with Stage 4 Melanoma, and this terrifying experience led her to take stock of her life and truly appreciate what she had She focused on helping him get through it and get better, and did not stop to emotionally process what was happening until later Carolyn's words of advice for anyone experiencing career dissatisfaction - find your own path The one song that most resonates for Carolyn about her life's journey Quotes: “I just had reached a point I think, I don't know, call it a midlife crisis or something. I don't know. But it took a long, long time. But I finally got to a point where I thought, I have to just do something else.” “I don't know that there was a single breaking point. I think that it had been building for a long time.” “All these years, I mean, everybody says, Do what you love. And I'm like, I don't know what...
Meghan Constantinou has been Head Librarian at The Grolier Club since 2011 and a Club member since 2013. Her research interests include the history of private collecting, women's book ownership, and provenance studies. The Club Library collects, preserves, and makes accessible materials dedicated to the history and art of the book. Strengths of its collection include bibliographies, histories of printing and graphic processes, type specimens, fine and historic examples of printing, bookbinding, illustration, and, in particular, the literature of antiquarian book collecting and the book trade. I spoke with Meghan via Zoom about the Grolier's collection of private library catalogues, and asked her for advice, based on her lengthy study of the topic, on how collectors might best go about producing their own catalogues.

As a teenager, Professor Bubblegum interned at radio station WBBG-AM in Echo Valley. Imagine if we could hear his first hour on the air, November 2, 1968! Ever wondered what it was like for the future mayor (and Head Librarian) in those early days, as he discovered and began to fall in love with bubblegum pop? Well, wonder no more! You read that right! To celebrate the spectacularly groovy occasion of our 50th episode, we are excited to share this vintage recording of His Honor Rufus "Tommy" Gumm, his first day on the air! Our deepest gratitude goes to an anonymous fan who must have recorded this off the radio almost 50 years ago! Thank you, sir or madame! Happy 50th!

Topic: Batman Tutorial We’re moving on from Gundam, and in to… The Batman! This is the first of what will be coming in the next year of Focused Topics, as where previously, we had been broad in discussion about Anime, Manga, Star Trek, and such, we’ll be diving in to more focused parts of geek culture, namely the heroes, villains, and key elements of certain media. Batman being one of the most ubiquitous comic book heroes in almost all media from Comics, to TV, to movies, and even anime and music, I figured this was a good place to start. Tutorial DC vs Marvel Continuity Marvel’s continuity is never explicitly mentioned or referenced, since Marvel deliberately doesn’t mention when events occur. In most cases, Events in Marvel happened a few years ago usually. DC continuity is often the Story. Namely that it has changed, reshaped, and modified the continuity endlessly over time. There’s been numerous major events that reshape the world and universe of DC to the point that it’s hard to talk about some characters, events, or even stories properly without rationalizing if they happened before certain events or not. This doesn’t make DC hard to follow, but rather makes it more difficult to be invested in long running stories, as the universe could up-end everything a few years later in a big event. Check out this video on DC Continuity https://www.youtube.com/embed/wunNa04W0sE Batman More about characters than individual plot/stories. First appeared in Detective Comics #27, 1939.

Welcome back, Fillorians! This week, we're back with Penny-40 and his "trainee". The show throws another and very interesting curveball by highlighting the story from two unexpected POVs. They also address Kady's absence from the last few episodes. While everyone else has stepped back into their old lives, Kady has embraced her badass Detective skills and carried forward with old cases. She also gets a visit from her new landlord. Head Librarian, Zelda finds herself at a crossroads. Fen takes center stage in Fillory as she gains some insight into different happenings around the castle. Hit play and listen in as Brad and Cort break down this week’s new episode, "The Side Effect". How cool was it to see Penny-40 again and who do you think he met at the elevator? What did you think of this version of the Babayaga? The show is always giving that extra unexpected twist to their storytelling. This time it was by giving over the audience's attention to characters many might consider "side characters". What did you think of Penny's lesson to his "trainee"? Be sure to drop us a comment below or in our Facebook group with your thoughts on Ep 4x07 “The Side Effect". You can also email us at bradandcorttalk@gmail.com.

This week we’re chatting with Philip Williams, Head Librarian at NIST International School in Bangkok, Thailand. As a librarian at NIST, Philip is part of the coaching team, so this episode in particular highlights the overlaps of how a modern librarian fits into a culture of coaching at a school. Philip shares lots of great examples of how, even in schools without a coaching team, a librarian can be a stepping stone into building that coaching culture – with librarians as an information literacy coach.

From March 23 to April 30, 2006 the Canadian Centre for Architecture hosted an exhibition entitled 125 Kilos of Books. I took in the show and interviewed Serge Belet, Head of Exhibitions at the CCA, about it. From the notes: "Celebrating the designation of Montreal as UNESCO World Book Capital City for 2005-2006, the exhibition presents a selection of printed architectural works dating from the 15th century to the present from the CCA's collection in order to provoke thought about what seems, at first sight, the most banal fact of any book: its size. A book's dimensions are only partly determined by the technology of its production or the physical comfort of its readers. Size is routinely used by authors and their publishers to indicate value, to justify price, and to control how and by whom their work is read – whether casually or ceremonially, individually or in groups, by the rich few or the many poor... Architecture in print has a long tradition of the big book. As in other disciplines such as human anatomy, this tradition developed because scale added clarity to the illustrations in a treatise, and kept better faith with the original drawings... By contrast, the builder's manual is traditionally small enough to fit the literal and metaphorical pocket of its intended audience... The books presented in the exhibition encompass an impressive range of scale and size, from the smallest, A brief discourse concerning the three chief principles of magnificent building: solidity, convenience, and ornament by Sir Balthazar Gerbier D'ouvilly (London, 1662), measuring 14.2 cm x 9.5 cm x 0.8 cm, to Sulpiz Boissere's Histoire et description de la cathdrale de Cologne (Stuttgart, 1823), a hefty tome more than a metre in height and weighing 21 kilos! All works have been selected from the CCA collection, which comprises nearly 200,000 volumes, by the exhibition's curator Gerald Beasley, Director of the Avery Architectural and Fine Arts Library, Columbia University, and until 2004, Associate Chief Curator and Head Librarian at the CCA.
