Are you someone who has great organizing power, keeps track of records, and loves to be surrounded by knowledge and information? Then the ‘Library and Information Science’ degree is the best-suited degree that would lead you to a satisfactory career in the future. With the rising number of students, the need for individuals who will monitor the library activities, guide the persons for various books, and keep track of every book, is increasing daily.

ISO: Graphic Novel Recommendations

I am presenting my thesis project on graphic novels in the library in May. I'm including a list of recommended readings for librarians who are not familiar with comics/graphic novels. I have a LONG list but I want to crowdsource and get some recommendations from the internet too. *Note: as any good librarian should, I'm going to properly vet your choices before adding the comic to my list.

"MA in human rights" sounds like the most made up degree

Now, I just have to figure out how I’m paying for classes! (The plan is student loans, if my financial aid application goes through in time. Otherwise, I’ll need to defer to Fall 2023. But hey, either way ya boi’s on the way to a career in archives and/or librarianship!)

"HB 777 not only would fine libraries and librarians, but it would possibly require hard labor by those found guilty. Read that again: librarians would be sentenced to hard labor for daring to join their largest professional organization.

The bill would also potentially kill one of the largest graduate school programs in the state of Louisiana, Louisiana State University’s Masters of Library and Information Science program. Like all Master of Library and Information Science programs, it is accredited by the ALA and goes through a rigorous process to ensure that the curriculum is up-to-date and aligned with best practices in libraries.

Even if the bill is limited “only” to the use of tax money to support membership or attendance/enrollment in ALA-sponsored professional development, take a moment to look into whether or not police, fire, or other public entities are subject to similar legislation in Louisiana or elsewhere. You probably know the answer–and you probably won’t be surprised that one of the few institutional benefits offered to library workers is such membership.

If you haven’t been paying attention until now or you’ve thought these fears when laid out over the last several years were hyperbole and this is your wakeup call, there’s no time like the present to get to work advocating on behalf of your library. If you live in Louisiana, contact your representatives as soon as possible (here’s a very easy way to do that!). You can also reach out to Kellee Dickerson by phone at (225) 380-4232 and email hse064@legis.la.gov.

Then, reach out to your own libraries and offer your support, either by showing up at board meetings and/or running for those board positions when vacancies occur. Go borrow books from the library and get your writing hands going with letters to your local papers.

EveryLibrary also has a petition you can sign related to HB777."

Please take the time to sign the petition, spread the word, and support your local library.

I've lost so much faith in the systems of the world that it extended to institutions and I've even contemplated whether or not to finish my masters because of my complete dissillusionment. I thought: "Whats the point? None of this means anything."

But my mother got angry at me. She said, "Don't do it for yourself, do it for your country. Your people. You need to preserve our culture. Do something to help your country. Worm your way into institutions and cause trouble for them, see how they do things. Be loud and be Palestinian because that's the way you resist outside Palestine."

I already went into the Library and Informational Sciences field with the intent to help Palestine. But now I don't care about anything else other than fighting the systems that people hold so dear to inflict oppression on people around the world. Fuck museums and libraries in colonial projects. I'm building my own archive and I get to define that with my communities. Fuck your systems of erasure, making my people invisible. I refuse it. I refuse it.
