We discuss the changing role of the university library, and librarian, and learn how these often iconic institutions are not just responding to change but actively seeking out new opportunities to improve their services and ensure access to valuable information. Hear about the efforts of US librarians to protect valuable public data and government records from the sudden erasure by the Trump administration. Plus, a UK vice-chancellor describes a pioneering project which saw his university partner with the local council to create a joint library that is open to anyone. Lynda Kellam is the Snyder-Granader director of research data and digital scholarship at the University of Pennsylvania. She has held previous data librarian roles at Cornell University and the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. She serves as secretary of the International Association for Social Science Information Service and Technology (IASSIST) and is a past president of the Government Documents Round Table (GODORT). Independently of her role at Penn, she is a leading figure in the Data Rescue Project, which is coordinating efforts to protect US public data at risk of deletion or mismanagement. David Green is the vice-chancellor of the University of Worcester. A Cambridge-educated economist with a career-long commitment to education and social equality, he was instrumental in establishing The Hive, which is the only fully integrated university-public library in Europe, in partnership with the Worcestershire County Council. Before joining Worcester in 2003, he held senior academic posts at London South Bank University, Leeds Metropolitan University and the University of West London, and worked as a researcher and consultant in the private sector and for UK homeless campaign SHELTER. In 2019, he was awarded a CBE for his services to higher education. You'll find more advice and insight on how university libraries can optimise their services for students, academics and the public in our latest spotlight guide.
In these unfathomable moments, when the world seems to be falling apart—we often turn to stories for guidance. For the folks in Southern California earlier this year, that story was Parable of the Sower.

ullada, inclinant-se cap a la seva opinió habitual.En: Pere, the local historian, always skeptical, glanced at it, leaning into his usual opinion.Ca: "És una broma, Llúcia.En: "It's a joke, Llúcia.Ca:

give up so easily.Ca: Va decidir investigar el llibre en secret.En: She decided to investigate the book in secret.Ca: "Montse, necessito la teva ajuda.En: "Montse, I need your help.Ca: Podem intentar

enigma.En: He wanted a logical explanation for this enigma.Ca: "Podria ser autèntic," va admetre a contracor, sorprenent fins i tot ell mateix.En: "It could be authentic," he admitted reluctantly,

What happens to intellectual freedom when libraries come under attack? What happens to curiosity? Librarian and director of the Department of Libraries in Arlington, VA, Diane Kresh joins me to explore the long and storied history of bad-ass librarians, book bans and book sanctuaries, the "curiosity paradox" of such bans, what makes libraries a center for community, and how curiosity is like an insatiable puppy.

I'll list these in my show notes with links to my Bookshop if you want to support my show as well as independent bookstores nationwide. Show notes available at https://www.sheworeblackpodcast.com/

The discussion explored the concept of “misogynoir” and its impact on Black women, including the ways in which societal expectations and cultural biases affect their experiences in leadership roles and in positions of authority. Moya Bailey's (2021) definition of this term was described. It combines misogyny and anti-Black racism but is a distinct phenomenon that highlights how the experiences of Black women are not simply additive—racism plus sexism—but are multiplicative and intersectional; a combination that creates a unique form of racialized gender violence often in ways that are subtle, insidious, and deeply rooted in unconscious fantasy. The conversation between Dr. Karyne Messina, the host of “Psychoanalytic Perspectives on Racism in America,” and Dr. Felecia Powell-Williams, the show's co-host, described how the powerful lens of psychoanalytic theory can explain how mechanism of defense operate as it relates to this term, not just as overt bias, but as a deeply embedded cultural logic stemming from the unconscious psychic life of our nation. Particular attention was paid to the concepts of projective identification, repression, idealization and devaluation all of which illuminate how unconscious anxieties, disavowed societal shame, and collective guilt can be projected onto Black women, especially those in positions of power. They also provided examples of “misogynoir” such as the controversial dismissal of the Librarian of Congress, Dr. Carla Hayden, and the relentless, often unhinged scrutiny faced by former Vice-president Kamala Harris. The host and co-host also talked about the important roles Black mothers can play in the world of entertainment who have the opportunity to teach their daughters how to navigate today in a world that is filled with negativity brought about by social media criticism while maintaining their own agendas. Beyonce's way of working with Blue Ivy and Rumi Carter was one example that was provided. Learn more about your ad choices.

Join Dave and Wayne for genre television show news, a glimpse into what the hosts are watching, listener feedback, and analysis of the TNT series The Librarians: The Next Chapter. This week on the SciFi TV Rewatch podcast we discuss the story telling improvements, whether Mrs. Astolat will join the series in a more permanent role, and if Wayne is to be believed, whether Astolat and Vikram take their relationship to the next level. Will Charley be able to manage a team whose leader is a bit of a loose cannon and other members lack supernatural experience. In our What We're Watching segment, Dave watches the Brigitte Bardot mini-series Bardot and then moves onto a run of her more well known films. Wayne has high praise for the Apple TV+ series Paradise. In Listener Feedback, Fred from the Netherland agrees this is a much stronger episode than the series' pilot, and Alan in England mentions frustrations using a VPN to access the series. Remember to join the genre television and film discussion on the SciFi TV Rewatch Facebook group for the latest genre television show news and podcast releases. Episode Grade: Dave A- Wayne B+

Today I'm joined by “Kitchen Table Activist” Karen England to expose the graphic, sexually explicit content being snuck into school and public libraries—often disguised as kid-friendly cartoons.These books aren't approved by parents, but by unelected librarians pushing content that goes far beyond what's appropriate for children.
