Twenty-some years ago I reminded my MLS students to store their libraries' card catalogs (not throw them out). Major power outages, I said, mean all your records will be inacessible & perhaps lost. You'll need those cards then. Feeling like a seer these days.

OK! #archivists and #libraryscience folks! I need some help. Is there any published or well known methodologies for searching your collections for an item that has been misplaced? As in, "we are 99%" sure it is still in the collection, but it is not where it should be... halp"

Photo showing a variety of books on display against a historic library backdrop that is in a board that says “Glasgow’s women’s library hello everyone welcome” The text overlaying the image says “ did you know? Glasgow women’s library uses its own feminist classification system.”
Photo showing a small selection of colourful books spines on a shelf. The text overlaying the image says “for decades topics like LGBTQIA+ lives were filed under abnormal psychology, social problems perversion and arrangement that that’s not something GWL was willing to accept”
Photographs showing wooden shelving holding the collection of books the area is carpeted in a light blue patterned carpet. The text overlaying the image says” the system began taking shape in 2005 when GWL’s first librarian Wendy Kirk started developing a way to organise a growing collection of over 20,000 donated books”
A photograph of three bookshelves that are pretty full. On the spines library labels can be seen. The overlaying the image says “ instead of complex codes GWL uses letters for main subjects numbers for sub categories for example H7 .1 is history 20th century and suffragettes. Simple. Intuitive. Welcoming.”

Speaking of NASA internships, the NASA Archives will be hiring, too.
For grad students in Information & Library Sciences, at one of several NASA centers.
I'll link to the NASA Headquarters job, & cram jobs at other centers into subsequent tweets.

Fun fact: My master's degree was mailed out on January 16th and still has yet to arrive. But I can download my degree as a pdf!! Might just go to library print it out to hang it up on my fridge cuz #libraryscience degree I paid out of pocket for needs to be displayed.
Currently, the store has no online presence except for FB, and the owner does not have an inventory database. What do you guys think about him hiring some MLS grad students to help him with creating something he can use for a website? #LibraryScience #MLS #BookSky 📚 💙

Explanation of Hume's Law: You can't derive an ought from an is because is derives from ought, ie our ontologies derive from our teleologies (purposes).
Just ask any information science ontologist.

Engraved portrait of Melvil Dewey Credit: Getty Images/Bettmann Image source: Smithsonian Magazine
Throughout his career, he faced multiple accusations of sexual harassment, racism, and antisemitism. In 2019, the American Library Association – which Dewey co-founded – voted on removing his name from its top award to librarians. There was no debate and an overwhelming majority of ALA members voted in favor of taking Dewey’s name off the award.
It is the birthday, in 1851, of the influential library scientist Melvil Dewey. He created the Dewey Decimal System which has given a framework to library science and the organizing of information itself.

I’m beginning my transition into & preparing for an MLIS program.
I’m interested in archives, public/academic librarianship & digital.
If you know of any internships, entry-level roles, or volunteer opportunities, I’d appreciate any recommendations
