Heute wird über die Auflösung des Studiengangs im Fachbereichsrat an der abgestimmt. So etwas kommt dabei heraus, wenn Hochschulen nach ökonomischen Prinzipien betrieben werden. Wir Studierende sind dazu aufgerufen, uns zu Wort zu melden. Wir haben dazu eine gestartet: https://www.openpetition.de/petition/online/gegen-die-schliessung-des-studiengangs-information-science
Über die Entscheidung abstimmen können aber nur die Angehörigen des Fachbereichsrates. Auch wenn die aktuell eingeschrieben Studis ihr wohl abschließen werden können, würde damit der bibliotheks- und informationswissenschaftlichen in Deutschland eine weitere Anlaufstelle verloren gehen. In einer Zeit, in der Informationsspezialist*innen gebraucht werden wie nie zuvor. Sie arbeiten für literally einen Grundpfeiler der offenen Gesellschaft: und , die überhaupt dafür sorgen, dass Menschen ohne Schranken (ohne Geld, ohne Internet) an Informationen kommen, am offenen Diskurs teilnehmen können.

📰 Do porannej kawusi ☕

Agnieszka Wiśniewska w :

"Czytacie to i przecieracie oczy, zastanawiając się, czy premier Miller właśnie opowiada Tomaszowi Lisowi, jak z Wiesiem stręczył pracownice BOR-u dla Berlusconiego? Tak, właśnie to przeczytaliście.

Na szczęście Berlusconi musiał zaraz lecieć, więc kobietom nic się nie stało. Czy w kolejnych słowach wywiadu Miller przeprasza pracownice z BOR-u, że w ogóle przyszedł mu do głowy pomysł, żeby je wołać? Nic z tych rzeczy."

The first time I moved to CA in 2000 felt local TV news was so troubled, I thought about major-car-chase and similar crime focused, and hooks they'd put at end of broadcast, but today I feel like it's such a bright spot for good, responsive and reflective news, I'd say better than natl outlets and better than the @latimes I subscribe to and always love, am so thankful for it.

Do any folks on here have a LIS undergrad degree? And if so could I ask you a few questions over email?

hiringlibrarians,

I'm so terrible at remembering hash tags - looking for folks who have LIS undergrad degrees who would be willing to answer a few questions over email

Now future librarians, and many in the field, also have to learn how they "can physically, legally and financially protect themselves and their organizations."

How book-banning campaigns have changed the lives and education of librarians – they now need to learn how to plan for safety and legally protect themselves https://theconversation.com/how-book-banning-campaigns-have-changed-the-lives-and-education-of-librarians-they-now-need-to-learn-how-to-plan-for-safety-and-legally-protect-themselves-205743 via @conversationus

Re-posting this in the hopes of reaching more folks, with thanks to those who've already connected with me and helped out...

Hi and folks. I'm mentoring some awesome faculty who are creating an undergraduate Library & Archival Studies Concentration in Africana Studies at their institution. The purpose of the concentration is to encourage undergraduates to pursue MLIS degrees.

One of the things we're focusing on is developing an introductory foundations class. I've been brainstorming possible things to cover and would love your input and ideas.

Currently I've organized things by:

  1. Things library folks need to know
  2. Things library folks (may) need to do
  3. Professional pathways (a set of perspectives for framing the content)

DM if you'd like to contribute to my brainstorming doc, or add your thoughts here👇
