PITCH-Critical Information Literacy using critical pedagogy. Can we chat about this. Loads coming out of US, not so much that I’ve found in UK.
I’ll be coming at it from a HE standpoint as that’s my day job, but holistic approach shall be taken into account.
I’d recommend giving Tewell’s lit review from 2015 a read for more context http://eprints.rclis.org/28163/
I’d like us to discuss trade unionism and putting the radical before the librarianship.
I get asked all the time if librarians have unions. We need to be organized
I do not have any ideas for sessions myself, but if anyone who cannot be there themselves has an idea then I’d be happy to facilitate discussion on that topic.
Maybe something about ‘Big Deals’ and how to get out of them ? There has an increasing movement against them of late.
Just a suggestion for a discussion.
I may well be coming, and would be happy to contribute to such a discussion
That would be excellent. Hope you can make it down on Saturday, Charles.
