BCLA Public Library Interest Group Journal Club — on community-led models

Session #2 of the BCLA Public Library Interest Group (PLIG) Journal Club!

Topic: Community-led models in public libraries

Date: Wednesday December 5

Time: 7-9 pm

Location: TBA

In considering collaborative possibilities for the journal club, we ask that if you have read any literature on this topic that meets the criteria listed below, please consider sharing on the PLIG Journal Club’s Zotero account by Thursday November 1:

https://www.zotero.org/groups/2217361/plig_journal_club/items

We are looking for readings from academic and/or popular sources that are:

— About community-led models, frameworks, or practices (within or outside of public libraries)

— Recently published (in the last 5 years)

— Open Access

Note: Sharing articles to the PLIG Journal Club Zotero account is optional (Zotero requires users to set up an account). It is not a required step for participating in the December session.

Journal Club organizers will select 2 readings to ground critical discussion at the December session. The assigned readings will be distributed via the BCLA listserv at a later date, along with final details of the meeting location, so stay tuned.
