RISS Annual Meeting re-cap
Thanks to those who attended this year’s annual meeting! We talked about how to best put our new mission and goals into practice and had a fantastic discussion about Fobazi Ettarh’s article, “Vocational Awe and Librarianship: The Lies we Tell Ourselves.” Check out Vice-Moderator Linden How’s meeting notes here!
Inspired by the work of Art+Feminism, 1Lib1Ref, and several RISS-ers experiences with Wikipedia edit-a-thons, we proposed collaboratively editing Wikipedia pages through Google Hangouts as a potential way to build community and our critical practice. If you’re interested in participating, please fill out this Google Form by Friday, April 6! We’ll email interested people to start organizing this shortly after that date.
Want to propose an #arlisriss Twitter chat? Please let me know at avincent17(at)gmail(dot)com! If you’d like to do one but aren’t sure how, never fear. We can help!
Looking forward to an exciting year of working together.
