Tough times for science. But it’s encouraging to be in a room with a group that will stand up for it chatting with these thoughtful people who are making change.
Thanks for a great session on Restoring Confidence in Science to our panelists, who discussed #PublicGoodCuration, the principles that underlie it, why it matters and how society relies on librarians, journalists, publishers, researchers & integrity officers for reliable information.#chsconf25

So many headlines report that AI is destroying student learning. How can we use AI to raise — not lower — the cognitive bar for students?

Answers here👇
"Treat AI not as a shortcut but as a context and catalyst for deeper learning."

In Sage’s new white paper, tech philosopher Tom Chatfield offers practical recommendations for integrating AI into teaching, learning, and assessment.

Where do academic librarians get industry news?

The survey results from a quick survey I did last year with the support of @chashub.bsky.social are here: www.charleston-hub.com/2025/07/wher...

To librarians who have thoughts in support of or opposition to what I found, would love to hear more!

Supporting social science supports critical thinking (which students so badly need!) and @sagepub.com is invested heavily in both.

We all know that the National Academies don't wade into politics (say what you want - that is a good thing).

But it's refreshing to see Marcia McNutt acknowledge that the current political environment makes science vulnerable and share what they are doing about it.

As a social science advocate, this is devastating - Minerva has been an exemplar for other agencies wanting to write effective policy for years.

As a human and a mother who wants the world to be a safer place, this is terrifying.
NEW: The Minerva Research Initiative, established by the Pentagon to fund social science relevant to national security, is being gutted. Dozens of researchers studying threats from extremist groups, misinformation or climate change have received notices that their grants are being terminated.
