Technological determinism is a total drag.

I want library leaders who can conceive of resistance, who can imagine different futures, not who say "welp, this is the world, guess we have no choice" at every single turn of politics or technology.

Finished writing a new "letterpress for all" 40-page #zine, "Just my type: finding, buying, or making your 1st letterpress type" as part of a forthcoming peer-reviewed article. Will be available for free online once issue is published (will share link here at that time!).
Photo of the Canva design app's grid view of pages, showing 40 zine pages at a zoomed-out level that gives you a sense the zine has a lot of text, interspersed with a lot of colorful photographs.

A frenzy of AI hype fuels trillions in spending on costly compute infrastructure. This piece details how real profits and transformative applications lag, revealing a bubble driven less by innovation than by capital reallocation and speculative excess.

The most radical act of feminism? Using AI

M. Abstract This dissertation centers on understanding and fixing the persistent and wicked problem of marginalization in systems. I do this by examining the “power to name” utilized by cultural heritage institutions (like Galleries, Libraries, Archives, Museums & Special Collections; GLAMS) and informational infrastructures (like databases, psychological schema, or social media platforms). As systems are defined by boundaries, the act of naming or labelling people, places, and things in these Knowledge Organization Systems (KOSes) produces marginalizations and exclusions. I undertake a comprehensive analysis to understand how a.....

Proud to have played even a small role on this project! Great summary post and an excellent job by the entire IOI team.

After two years of intensive research, IOI's project “Investigating "reasonable costs" to achieve public access to federally funded research and scientific data” has concluded.
The Publishing Profiler: Visualizing Research Output Footprints The Publishing Profiler represents a tool to help institutions understand their federal research publication landscape. Built by consultant Eric Schares and expanding on his earlier work at Iowa State University, this interactive dashboard combines data from Dimensions and OpenAlex to provide comprehensive insights into institutional publishing patterns. Using an eight-year analysis period (2016-2023) to capture trends and context, the Publishing Profiler reveals: Total publication output with breakdowns by corresponding authorship status Federal funding acknowledgments extracted from acknowledgment text and metadata Nelson Memo-implicated publications—the crucial intersection of corresponding authorship and federal funding that would fall under new policies Publisher and journal patterns showing where researchers are publishing and how this is changing over time Open access status across different forms of OA Funding agency breakdowns allowing deeper dives into specific federal funders For example, Iowa State University's 2023 data showed 2,776 total published articles, with 48% having ISU corresponding authors and 55% of those acknowledging federal funding, resulting in 733 articles that would be subject to the Nelson-era open-access policies. The tool's practical applications are immediate: libraries can gauge future demand for institutional repositories based on the percentage of non-OA publications that will need compliance support, while research offices can help investigators budget for article processing charges or plan to publish in fully open access journals.

I like that this piece argues for a democratising understanding of open science over the more neoliberal one they view as common. I've always felt that a more robust understanding of democratisation is needed for open movements, rather than just assuming that democracy is implied in free culture.
