However, just because Lankes doesn't do a great job on explaining how fiction, literacy, and power go together doesn't mean they don't.

We Are What We Pretend to Be". Blog of an academic librarian, on indefinite hiatus. I really regret the name. Tuesday, June 25, 2013. Party Hard. Make It Happen. Scream at Each Other.

We Are What We Pretend to Be". Blog of an academic librarian, on indefinite hiatus. I really regret the name. Sunday, May 5, 2013. Shall I Keep Blogging? I've had a blog for almost a semester now. It's been class-mandated, and soon we'll see if I keep it up. Would it be worth it? What do I get out of blogging? Where I brought in a great blog post from Scholarly Communications @ Duke. Or totally non-expert opinion on the White House OA policy. The "keeping up-to-date" function was that some of the blogger...

The sort of extreme pride and satisfaction that you get when the students finally get something? You only get that from the repeated interactions you get in a class. 1) Or longer. Boolean!

Photo public domain, copied from Wikipedia. Two days ago, Steve Ammidown over at Hack Library School wrote a great post. And our chapter of Progressive Librarians Guild.
