Libraries. Beer. Recovering Political Scientist. Snark in the face of hopelessness. He/Him/His.
Hi, I am still here. Just in case. You know.
so i am going to drink beer at the smithsonian natural history museum tonight
it is the craft brewers conference, the conference of craft brewers, there is so much beer
One of the things that sucks about libraries is that the power users don't have an awful lot of power.
Boss: We need to demonstrate our value.
Me: <demonstrates value>
Boss: Well you didn't demonstrate value to the right people.
If those "right people," the ones with sociopolitical power, don't care about the power users... what then?
Not a rhetorical question, btw.
So, feeling a bit stuck at the moment. Thanks for listening.
never toot
@ruth So... Mastodon is a like libraries discovery layer but for microblogging? I hope EBSCO doesn't buy it.
Ok so how many people on here are librarians or libtech who are sighing, breathing, and explaining what the heck federation means? WE'VE BEEN TRAINING OUR WHOLE LIVES FOR THIS MOMENT.
This better not be the new ello.
