‘Information literacy: social class perspectives — at LILAC 2024’: https://www.preater.com/2024/04/19/information-literacy-social-class-perspectives-at-lilac-2024/

We’ve written a follow-up blog post for our @Infolitgroup #lilac24 panel to address more of the themes, comments and questions that we couldn't cover on the day.

Huge thanks to the contributors to our Padlet ahead of time and in the session. Our call to action is for all of us, regardless of social class background, to continue these conversations in our own libraries and communities.

A few years ago over on the dear old birdsite I asked if there are any library strategic plans that reference critical information literacy, or critical librarianship.

My finest librarianly searching has not found any more since. Does anyone know of any? (Other than University of West London - keeping it real! 💙)

Next week I'm speaking with colleagues on a panel at the #LILAC24 conference about social class and information literacy.

We aim to bring forward working-class perspectives on library work and #InfoLit practices, challenge you, and create reflective discussion.

We'd welcome views on our provocations via our Padlet from those attending, or not:

Many interesting thoughts, reflections and some advice on library management and leadership from Tom Peach on the CILIP @Infolitgroup podcast.

#introduction. I'm Andrew, a library director in London, UK.

I'm interested in how libraries can support equity and widening participation in higher education, working-class lived experience of HE, critical theories of library and education practice, and library leadership informed by #Critlib movement.

My background was originally in systems, with a strong interest in Free Software. I prefer Slackware as my OS.

Outside work, I am a randonneur (audax cyclist), mostly fixed wheel.

@rowmyboat It's not my area of expertise, but the segregated libraries of the American South are examples of both! #LibraryLife #CritLib

At #CALC23 we'll explore libraries as sites of classed marginalisation and exclusion and our experiences as HE workers, but also celebrate the value of working-class cultural capital using Yosso's concept of community cultural wealth.

We'll be a bit Bourdieusian and very #Critlib.

We want library workers of working-class heritage to know you are seen and this is for you. 🧡

please boost! ! The Queer Metadata Collective is looking for feedback from #catalogers #metadata workers #critcat #critlib #archivists #dh #histsex folks on questions or dillemmas they have encountered while describing individuals/communities/items

Some hypotheticals from working groups:

Classification:
* Some classification systems separate books about gay, lesbian, bisexual (etc) groups into different areas of the library. Should local practices override that in order to group them together?

I'm at #QueerBibliography @ the Senate House Library! I'm really excited for this conference and I'm really excited for my paper, which extends the impossible/archival imaginaries proposed by @professorcaz and Gilliand and proposes a queered Metadatic Imaginary. #critcat #critlib

#QueerBibliography will be great but also very challenging for me; it'll be sad to not be able to communicate with the other attendees (it's all masked) but I'm glad that everyone is staying safe. 💕

new #OA article from me about the critical cataloging database (critcat.org) lessons taught by #critcat (#critarch #critlib). It's dedicated to and opens w a quote from Emily Drabinski bc it would not exist if not for her.
