Did we mention our entire fall schedule is now available!? New to our work? We organize online gatherings for LIS folks (librarians & grad school faculty) to talk about pedagogy. We start with a brief presentation and then have a collegial discussion. It's casual, friendly, and supportive. Join us!

The new IMLS director is busy sending termination letters to grants that are already completed. It’s not like there’s a pile of unspent funds, everything is already paid for.
