readings for 24-30 November 2008
the unserved
These two may not seem to have any direct connection to the content of this week's lecture notes, but I would like you to read them before reading the lecture notes. They should condition your minds to think about the topics addressed in the lecture notes.
- Jensen, Robert. The Myth of the Neutral Professional. Progressive Librarian 24, Winter 2004-2005. pp. 28-34.
- Phenix, Katherine J. & McCook, Kathleen de la Peña. Human Rights and Librarians. Reference & User Services Quarterly, vol. 45, number 1, Fall 2005. pp. 23-26.
As you think about the unserved, think about how you, as a library professional, choose to stand in terms of what you think needs doing in your community and your society.
