This interview with Shawn(ta) Smith-Cruz about Grabbing Tea: Queer Conversations on Identity and Libraries and Grabbing Tea: Queer Conversations on Archives and Practice (available in 2024 from the Litwin Books Series on Gender and Sexuality in Library and Information Studies) explores how queerness is centered within library and archival theory and practice. Smith-Cruz and co-editor Sara A. Howard invited library and archives workers to share conversations which became the chapters for these two volumes. These conversations explore a huge range of topics: identity, community practice and outreach, visibility and coming out or being outed in the library, as well as the archive as a site for reclamation, narrative storytelling, ancestral recalling, and historical revisioning within LGBTQ+ communities. Contributions to these volumes integrate interpersonal experiences of professionalism for queer folks in the field, dive into their relationships and points of connection with each other and the communities they serve, and engage with the implications of race and sexuality in archival practice. Readers are invited to listen in and join these conversations that consider the fluidity of our bodies as queer bodies, and our lives as queer lives inside of the library and the archive. Shawn(ta) Smith-Cruz is a volunteer archivist at the Lesbian Herstory Archives, and an Assistant Curator, and Associate Dean for Teaching, Learning, and Engagement at New York University Division of Libraries. Jen Hoyer is Technical Services and Electronic Resources Librarian at CUNY New York City College of Technology. Jen edits for Partnership Journal and organizes with the TPS Collective. She is co-author of What Primary Sources Teach: Lessons for Every Classroom and The Social Movement Archive. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this podcast episode, host Ole Olesen-Bagneux welcomes Jessica Talisman, a senior information architect at Adobe, who shares her vast experience across various IT domains and her unique perspective combining library information science with modern data architecture.Throughout their conversation, Jessica highlights the potential of knowledge graphs to add depth and context to data, making a case for their integration into AI and IT systems based on principles she adapted from her past as a librarian. She further explores how traditional library sciences, especially models like FRBR and MARC, can influence modern data management practices and help maintain data provenance and rights management in AI applications.Ole and Jessica delve into the challenges and advancements within the data community regarding the understanding and application of taxonomies and ontologies. They discuss how these can act as a business's 'fingerprint' in the AI landscape, emphasizing the necessity for curated and domain-specific data architectures to enhance business representation and functionality in technological settings.

Academic Librarianship: Anchoring the Profession in Contribution, Scholarship, and Service (Rowman & Littlefield, 2023) by Marcy Simons is needed now as a response to how much has changed in academic librarianship as a profession (from the smallest academic libraries to large research libraries). Much has been written recently about the status of the profession of librarianship, i.e. whether or not it should still be considered a “profession,” are the same credentials still required/enough, should things change dramatically in SLIS programs in response to the new normal, and what is the impact of hiring PhD's in disciplines outside of librarianship.

Are you interested in law librarianship, but haven't pursued it as a career path because you do not have a law degree? While some law librarians do have a J.D. (juris doctor) or law degree, it is certainly not necessary to work in the field. Law librarians work in many different settings. They can be found working in a variety of settings, such as academic law libraries, public law libraries, courthouses, government agencies, and private law firms. Their patrons can include the general public, law students, attorneys, legislators, and judges. This webinar is hosted by iSchool instructor Vicki Steiner and features an esteemed panel of guest speakers who will share their experiences and suggestions for job opportunities and professional growth and development in the field of law librarianship.

In this episode, I talk to the incredibly knowledgable Cheryl Straffon. Cheryl has taught me so much since I moved to Cornwall about ancient sites and the lineage of goddess culture in this land.We discuss Cornish ancient sites, how she researches to bring the sites alive and how she combines intuition, science, anthropology and archeology to understand how ancient people used the sites. We consider the status of women in society and storytelling and journey through the ages to understand more about sacred places.About Cheryl:Cheryl Straffon spent her childhood in Cornwall, UK, and then studied English &Comparative Religion at King's College London University for a B.A (Hons) degree.Following this, she did a post-graduate Education diploma at Cambridge University and then taught for some years in Secondary and Further Education in Scotland and England, before taking up Bookselling Training and then Librarianship. In 1986 she returned to Cornwall to live, where she was the Library Manager of St.Just Library for 20 years, before taking early retirement in 2006. For about 15 years she was firstly the Secretary and then the Chair of C.A.S.P.N [Cornish Ancient Sites Protection Network], a Charity that looks after the prehistoric sites in West Penwith, Cornwall, before she stepped down in 2017. However, she still continues to play a role in the organisation as Deputy-Chair, and organises the annual ‘Pathways to the Past' event (a weekend of walks and talks amongst the ancient sites), now in its 16 th year. In 2018 she was awarded the annual ‘Heritage Champion of the Year' (Sir Richard Trant award) from the Cornwall Heritage Trust. For the last 36 years she has produced and edited a magazine “Meyn Mamvro”, about the ancient stones and sacred sites in Cornwall, and written books including “Pagan Cornwall: Land of the Goddess”, “TheEarth Goddess”, “Daughters of the Earth”, “Megalithic Mysteries of Cornwall”, “Fentynyow Kernow”, “Between the Realms”, etc. She has given a number of talks and workshops, and has been a central figure in the Goddess movement: for 15 years she edited a magazine “Goddess Alive!” as well as being a Trustee for Women's Land in Cornwall, a co-organiser of the Goddess in Cornwall event, and a trainer on the Priestess of Kernow course. She is married to her partner Lana Jarvis, an accomplished dowser, and they share a love of the Land and the Ancient Sites, especially in Cornwall, and also in Crete, where they have had a house built, and where they spend some time each year.E-mail address - info@meynmamvro.co.ukWebsite: www.meynmamvro.co.ukAbout Meghan:Meghan Field is a Qoya Teacher, Embodiment Coach, Irish Celtic Shaman and Social Justice Activist who lives in Cornwall, U.K.  Meghan is the Violence Against Women and Girls Strategic Lead for Plymouth City, has her own consultancy practice, is the owner of Sacred Kernow Retreats, the founder of The Intuition Conversations Podcast and the creator of multiple oracle decks.

Can libraries be radical positive change agents in their communities? R. David Lenkes offers a guide for librarians who see their profession as a chance to make a positive difference in their communities —librarians who recognize that it is no longer enough to stand behind a desk waiting to serve. Lankes reminds libraries and librarians of their mission: to improve society by facilitating knowledge creation in their communities. In this book, he provides tools, arguments, resources, and ideas for fulfilling this mission. Librarians will be prepared to become radical positive change agents in their communities, and other readers will learn to understand libraries in a new way. The libraries of Ferguson, Missouri, famously became positive change agents in August 2014 when they opened their doors when schools were closed because of civil unrest after the shooting of an unarmed teen by police. Working with other local organizations, they provided children and their parents a space for learning, lunch, and peace. But other libraries serve other communities—students, faculty, scholars, law firms—in other ways. All libraries are about community. In The New Librarianship Field Guide (MIT Press, 2016), Lankes addresses the mission of libraries and explains what constitutes a library. He offers practical advice for librarian training; provides teaching notes for each chapter; and answers “Frequently Argued Questions” about the new librarianship.

Can libraries be radical positive change agents in their communities? R. David Lenkes offers a guide for librarians who see their profession as a chance to make a positive difference in their communities —librarians who recognize that it is no longer enough to stand behind a desk waiting to serve. Lankes reminds libraries and librarians of their mission: to improve society by facilitating knowledge creation in their communities. In this book, he provides tools, arguments, resources, and ideas for fulfilling this mission. Librarians will be prepared to become radical positive change agents in their communities, and other readers will learn to understand libraries in a new way. The libraries of Ferguson, Missouri, famously became positive change agents in August 2014 when they opened their doors when schools were closed because of civil unrest after the shooting of an unarmed teen by police. Working with other local organizations, they provided children and their parents a space for learning, lunch, and peace.

For years, Kristy hid her stripping history to fit into the mold of a respectable librarian, but as time went on she realized this wasn't something she should feel ashamed about. Telling these kinds of stories helps destigmatize sex work, which makes it safer for current sex workers. Librarianship is changing, especially as the profession begins to evaluate itself through a greater anti-oppression lens. Librarians can learn a lot about class struggle and privacy advocacy from sex workers. https://www.kristycooper.com/books
