oh here's a better URL w/ tonight's #critlib deets http://critlib.org/twitter-chats/upcoming-twitter-chats/ … starting in 5 mins! join us, all are welcome!
Excited for my first #critlib chat! @PrattInfoSchool
I'm Kate, Curator of Special Collections & Archives @UofDenver #critlib
Hello #critlib I'm Laura, student at @PrattInfoSchool and aspiring academic librarian!
- Hello! I'm Nan! Student at @PrattInfoSchool, Info Assistant @ NYPL #critlib
hi #critlib! madison, librarian/fellow at @ncsulibraries. research & information services, and external relations. lurking as usual!
@rowmyboat mind telling us a little more about that? Let's unpack it. #critlib- It's cool. They are there in case anyone wants more info. Plenty of things to read! #critlib https://twitter.com/foureyedsoul/status/656637868647911424 …
@praise711 Who were not really librarians! #critlib- I learned basically nothing about library history until years after school, when I read on my own. #critlib https://twitter.com/kellykietur/status/656638125930860544 …
@CiotaRebecca Yikes! Who is doing the hiring of these director positions? #critlib- @kellykietur We learned about the "history of libraries," but it didn't include a damn thing about labor rights or gender. #critlib
@melbrarian nice to have you here! #critlib
.@AcornElectric Heck yeah that's what I'm seeing: men promoted, women stagnate #critlib- A1: @catladylib I got part of one class sesh on library history last year, no mention of gender #critlib
I see this happen SO often. Being in a diverse workplace, I see it happen even more when race/age involved.#critlib https://twitter.com/oksveta/status/656638475676946433 …- @kellykietur You are not alone. My grumpy feminist ears would've perked up @ a discussion of either tho so I'm sticking with it. #critlib
@PoorCharlotte interesting! say more? if push was away from historical context of "library" what was it toward? #critlib
#critlib – some history, interspersed in required courses, and usually linked to particular topic (i.e. copyright) https://twitter.com/catladylib/status/656638764459147264 …- @kshockey04 still important though and better than nothing! #critlib
@catladylib men "legitimize" a lot of things in general though #critlib
@feministlib towards the Future! The internet, metadata, etc. We were an iSchool, not a "library school" anymore #critlib
@catladylib sure. I agree. but nothing about libr* #critlib- @kellykietur basically real life issues are reflected in LIS. #critlib
@catladylib Library history at my grad school was cursory, w/ men like Dewey as the focus & women relegated as background players. #critlib
@elisedunham, I would love a reading list from the class if you still have it. :) #critlib- @rowmyboat But only of white dudes #critlib
@kshockey04 Yes, same picture in my education. #Critlib
Yes, we didn't mention diversity in the field once in my program! #critlib https://twitter.com/lisahubbell/status/656639681493204992 …
@librarybell exactly; never mind anyone else. #critlib
@KaraKaraPW Oof, now that's a question. I'll see what I can do after #critlib is done.- @GinaMurrell1 A1 Related, in first article - only POC/lgbtiq librarians mentioned "exceptional," v typical of 2nd wave feminism. #critlib
- I'm using "they" these days MT “@lyttlelibrarian: A1: would love it if the default pronoun in LIS lit was "she" #critlib”
- @catladylib Yes! It wasn't until writing papers requiring deeper study that I learned of women movers & shakers in library history. #critlib
A1: recent piece by @RoxanneShirazi is a great place to start convos about women and the profession and #dh http://roxanneshirazi.com/2014/07/15/reproducing-the-academy-librarians-and-the-question-of-service-in-the-digital-humanities/ … #critlib- @edrabinski A1 I wonder if the lack of historical context in MLIS is due to degree being "professional" rather than "academic." #critlib
- @catladylib A1: I really wanted to know more history, and have heard about it more from history sessions at AAM than in school #Critlib
this #critlib chat is way more interesting than writing an annotated bibliography… each new tweet got me like... pic.twitter.com/9NTtfPuUZd
@ginaschless @DinahHandel That's one thing I wish I could go back and change about my undergrad days, feeling catch-uppy now. #critlib- @CiotaRebecca #critlib Teach these women what "proper" lit is (picked by white men), & these women can just promulgate the canon (2)
- @frannypak And I learned from K Wisser. The alma mater (i.e., the profs) shining here. #critlib Also, hi! :)
- @CiotaRebecca #critlib To counteract this history, women (librarians) should get into coll. dev. - and not only cis white mid class women(3)
- @rowmyboat What's a better question? #critlib
- @kellykietur that's what I was thinking. Being aggressive is fine for a man, but frowned upon in women. #critlib
- @DinahHandel esp. in the glass elevator article, where black male nurses were hardly seen as nurses #critlib
- .@beccakatharine maybe not that the question is wrong, but that to even get to ask it, we have first to interrogate the question. #critlib
- @librarybell what's the difference in your opinion? #critlib
@pumpedlibrarian What do you think are some ways that women perpetuate the status quo? #critlib- @praise711 @pumpedlibrarian we can often be our own worst enemies, not supporting each other enough #critlib
Q2 latest 8rs study shows half(?) university libns are women but dry facts no politics http://www.ls.ualberta.ca/8rs/reports.html … #critlib- @PoorCharlotte AH. I think I just escaped that wave, 2007-2011; also at a historically women's trade school which colored things. #critlib
- @catladylib It is a political question- they all rely on gov't funding, but the overall org leadership differs + #critlib
- @catladylib @kellykietur I question if "aggressive" should be good at all (for m or f). Aggression is violent (esp for m). #critlib
- .@readywriting check out http://critlib.org for background/history/present practice around hashtag #critlib 😊
- @catladylib I'm thinking about race and class here specifically, within a community #critlib
- @CiotaRebecca @catladylib @kellykietur Yup, aggressive /= decisive, which I think is what is meant. #critlib
A2.1 &conundrum w perception of women lead, expectation to be warm/caring, but looked down on (@beccakatharine said something sim) #critlib
@CiotaRebecca Is that the "American Library History Literature, 1947-1997: Theoretical Perspectives?" (pdf https://www.ischool.utexas.edu/~lcr/archive/fulltext/LandC_35_1_Wiegand.pdf …) #critlib- @librarybell I was thinking of what we value in leadership more generally and how that related to gender. What's valued? #critlib
This. I'm lurking on #critlib while doing homework. #multitask https://twitter.com/LBWicket/status/656633653716525060 …- @catladylib @librarybell Good question: what does leadership mean? What are leadership traits and how are they culturally specific? #critlib
- Q2 leaders as a #neoliberal concept related to entrepreneurship, assumes can fill bag w skills=leader, no artistry=bad lot? #critlib
- YES PLEASE. RT @rowmyboat A2: Also, fuck leaders? Let's re-imagine our structures entirely. #critlib
- @praise711 like what @PoorCharlotte says here for example: https://twitter.com/PoorCharlotte/status/656641332279160832 … #critlib
- Yes. More stepping in, and stepping out within convos. #critlib https://twitter.com/melbrarian/status/656641823931105280 …
- @catladylib The traits we value in "leaders" are traditional masc ones. Don't transfer to women, poc who face rejection for them #critlib
- @violetbfox I don't think so (at least, that doesn't look familiar). I'll have to look for it #critlib
- @foureyedsoul HA i've been told that i'm intimidating!!! #critlib
A2 And between lean-in feminism & intersectional feminism in leadership. #critlib https://twitter.com/AprilHathcock/status/656642013241200641 …- This is a great question. #critlib https://twitter.com/sunnykins/status/656642227473530881 …
- @melbrarian I started doing this in our library senate meeting today and it quickly got discouraging. #critlib
- Collab and coop structures! Down with the middle management mentality! #critlib https://twitter.com/rowmyboat/status/656641874967580673 …
- @elizbrary #critlib I've been called "demanding" & "abrasive" by supervisor b/c I asked for more projects.
- @rorylitwin #critlib Vendors, retail, and above all shiny silly con valley boys.
- Down with the top levels of management, too. #critlib https://twitter.com/marxalot/status/656642614381314048 …
- Also favor staying in a place to DO WORK rather than go to "leadership" job away from what they LIKE to do #critlib https://twitter.com/bfister/status/656641803752443904 …
- @violetbfox #critlib This one: Weigand, W. (1989). The development of librarianship in the United States. Libraries & Culture, 24(1), 99-109
- @GinaMurrell1 YUP. It starts with each one of us critically self-examining perspectives & behaviors & be willing to be called out. #critlib
@catladylib I think being willing to admit that you are wrong is a stereotypically feminine quality & a great quality in a leader #critlib
@sunnykins Right? Def troubles these discussions. #critlib
And I'm too loud, opinionated, and aggressive. We should switch! #critlib #angryblacklady https://twitter.com/foureyedsoul/status/656642182615445504 …
@thomthomthom discussions about men and women leave me wondering when they'll understand gender binary #critlib pic.twitter.com/Y8gQJnT00C- @sunnykins @ ALA, the all-gender bathrooms weren't successful. Saddened to see nonbinary marginalized. #critlib
- On the flip side, I was taught the opposite. And it's still a struggle to be heard/taken seriously. #critlib https://twitter.com/catladylib/status/656643131388112896 …
- @beccakatharine and the opposite too -- playing nice because I look "innocent" can be an "advantage". dangerous! #critlib
@catladylib there's already a problem when we have a system where salary is 'negotiated'; individualism is part of patriarchy #critlib- We all had to take mgmt classes in lib school. Did any incl disc of alt models of organization @rowmyboat & others suggesting? #critlib
- Also wondering abt lib advocating 4 itself w/in parent institution (where relevant)? Does issue travel up? #critlib https://twitter.com/catladylib/status/656642680294907904 …
- @pumpedlibrarian But I think that has a to do with the context of the negotiator - I know I can get away w/ more bc I'm cis & femme #critlib
- @sunnykins @thomthomthom slowly, I think discussion about gender identity is happening at institutional level, but not fast enough. #critlib
- Conflict aversion gets in my way. Need to be liked. Wanting everyone to be happy. #critlib #feministleadership
- @edrabinski @rowmyboat NOPE it was taught by a business librarian and an upper management apologist. EVERYTHING was economic data. #critlib
- .@DinahHandel I think that's the essence of good leadership. It's not being a visionary but helping others collectively have vision #critlib
- I definitely plan on advocating more for myself in the next go-around! Despite it being terrifying and intimidating @gonesquirrelly #critlib
WOMEN LIBRARY WORKERS Journal-15 years digitized. #critlib https://books.google.com/books/about/Women_Library_Workers_Journal.html?id=Oa7iAAAAMAA …- @edrabinski a very neoliberal adaptation of the principle. #critlib
@edrabinski none that I remember and I graduated in May #critlib
@CiotaRebecca what wasn’t successful about them? i remember seeing pictures of the bathroom signs and feeling heartened. Policing? #critlib- @librarybell I need one of those! #critlib
- @beccakatharine Maybe. But also want to blame dependence on business for models. We can do better. #critlib
- @edrabinski I feel like it can easily come down to "wanting to be liked" vs "wanting to be paid (fairly)" #critlib
- @AcornElectric Other libns will help you for sure. If academic, hit up faculty associations. #critlib
- @sunnykins Some policing. Also, signs taken down. Men/women self-segregate, making it still hard for nonbinary to feel comfortable #critlib
- Getting female mgmt to take this seriously, too!! #critlib https://twitter.com/melbrarian/status/656644405655306240 …
@edrabinski I didn't. It's required now but I think a lot of people went through LIS without any mgmt training #critlib- @edrabinski @rowmyboat tbh I'm grateful when I have an awesome boss to deal w/ muckety mucks, HR, etc. FOR EXAMPLE @lisarnorberg! #critlib
@edrabinski Feel that! I feel like I care about maintaining good workplace relationships at the expense of myself... blegh! #critlib- Male-read/presenting, I should say* #critlib https://twitter.com/elisedunham/status/656644740209733632 …
- @nanamartian @edrabinski Also, we're community-minded and want one another to do well, at least at my lib. Keeping the peace. #critlib
@kshockey04 @edrabinski @rowmyboat Am I allowed to imagine a library future where Emma Goldman is taught as a model leader? #critlib
@kshockey04 in my required LIS technology class I was repeatedly informed that tech ppl worship Sir Tim Berners-Lee #critlib- @catladylib @kshockey04 to be expected to make your case for a good salary put the burden on the indiv 1/2 #critlib
- @librarybell when i was a grad student assistant the union negotiated pay raises, but i didn't directly do it #critlib
- @PodcastLib I'm way too old to ask for permission for any damn thing. Or apologize. (Also, have tenure.) #critlib
- @CiotaRebecca @sunnykins I noticed the self-segregation and it was weird. Like ppl missed the point. #critlib
- @beccakatharine yep, everything is intersectional #critlib
Looking up public salaries has been helpful in neg. prep. also whoa some ppl make so much #critlib https://twitter.com/lisaflepore/status/656644785449517056 …- @librarybell It's useful when salaries are publicly available, we have a union which helps w/transparency (also a public college). #critlib
- @lisaflepore at my former job, salaries were public, but it didn't fix this problem necessarily #critlib
- @ibeilin @catladylib @kshockey04 And individualized, rewards go to those already benefitting from {gender, race, class} privilege. #critlib
- It's not. Many times employers will tell you salary isn't negotiable. Absolutely NOT okay. #critlib https://twitter.com/oksveta/status/656645465732091904 …
- @catladylib well i APPLIED to emerging leaders but i haven't heard anything yet ugh #critlib
- @kshockey04 after months of only guys, I brought it up with instructor. I got to talk abt Turing being gay which was great #critlib
- @MissEmilieLib I think "professional" is far too often used to mean"shut up" #critlib
I am a supervisor at two libraries at IU and never got leadership training @catladylib #critlib- @catladylib it's kind of BS that EL is like "you have to go to the confs but you might have to pay for it all yourself lol" #critlib
- This brings up the issue of invisible labor. What happens to the leaders if the workers walk out one day? #critlib https://twitter.com/gonesquirrelly/status/656645774458023936 …
.@lisahubbell, no but God help the librarians married to "real" academics- lots of maddening assumptions tied up w PhD spouse! #critlib- @gonesquirrelly I think we all want efficacy and a chance to make things better. That's leadership. No I do not want to be a boss's #critlib
- @catladylib i think it definitely limits the kinds of people that might apply #critlib
Yes! When something is a "calling," no need for fair compensation #critlib https://twitter.com/lyttlelibrarian/status/656646165673414656 …- I'd like to see that. I don't even know if it needs to be anon. #critlib https://twitter.com/pumpedlibrarian/status/656646336968699904 …
.@lyttlelibrarian agree even if we love our work we should still be well compensated. #critlib- @catladylib Leadership training is offered in "professional development" courses at my library. Attendance is voluntary. #critlib
- Yep--being accused of being emotional is problematic bc it's equated to being female, therefore weak. #critlib https://twitter.com/MissEmilieLib/status/656645792032124928 …
- @lyttlelibrarian that pernicious lie "love what you do you'll never work a day in your life" -- sure, in the post capitalism #CritLib
@catladylib #critlib I know a lot of lib people are in leadership roles not by choice.- @melbrarian @catladylib yes I agree- I even deleted the tweet! admitting you're wrong IS a great quality, but is not valued at ALL #critlib
@DinahHandel I know how to do programming because I booked shows #critlib- Transparency is key. This is a good idea! #critlib https://twitter.com/pumpedlibrarian/status/656646336968699904 …
@readywriting #critlib is gr8. Consider following @pumpedlibrarian et al. for a more steady stream of critical IL and libr talk- @catladylib A3 I was taught it was rude to talk about how much money people made #critlib
- @catladylib A4 Maj of librarians being women seems to make gender a less visible issue. We do better at least acknowledging race. #critlib
- i'm the most unprofessional professional #critlib https://twitter.com/bfister/status/656646253829341185 …
- @foureyedsoul no. and no. :( #critlib
- This. There might be a class aspect to this. #critlib https://twitter.com/sparkymonster/status/656646922741129216 …
- @AprilHathcock I've been dinged for aggression & lack of deference as well #teamangryblackwomen #critlib
- How do they get there? Seems like a bad idea if one doesn't want to be a leader. #critlib https://twitter.com/modbrarian/status/656646733514932224 …
- 💯Everybody just own your professional status & judgment, all together now! #critlib https://twitter.com/bfister/status/656642351507591168 …
- YES PLEASE. Especially hard, I think, in a perfectionist attracting field like librarianship. #critlib https://twitter.com/PodcastLib/status/656646744000831488 …
- That's what they want us to think. :) #critlib https://twitter.com/sparkymonster/status/656646922741129216 …
- @lisaflepore I agree - I'm now in a situation where it's all rumors and whispers, and grumbling #critlib
- The concept that race/gender/ability "isn't relevant" to a given subject is willful blindness& silencing #critlib https://twitter.com/gonesquirrelly/status/656646456640581636 …
- @lyttlelibrarian That line gets thrown at teachers, social workers, so many other "service" professions which are maj female. #critlib
- @catladylib I hear a lot about not enough staff -> you get hired for a job and get loaded w/ responsibilities not in description #critlib
- Then that change is happening from below. Are bypassing "normal" channels of leading "change #critlib https://twitter.com/bfister/status/656646581987487744 …
- @KaraKaraPW what form did these explorations take? #critlib
- @kshockey04 but if we get lost in the stacks, you can orienteer our way out, right? #critlib
- @kshockey04 it was always drilled to me in retail to NEVER ask what your coworkers made #critlib
- Susan Faludi estimated that for every 10% increase women in a profession, wage fell by $700 (1990 dollars) #critlib https://twitter.com/CiotaRebecca/status/656647218741518336 …
- @kshockey04 nevertheless i found out that new male hires were getting more than me and i was PISSED #critlib
- @gonesquirrelly Nope. As the child of administrators, I know the price of being a "leader" in academia & I am reluctant to pay it. #critlib
- @anterobot couldn't agree more. Welcome! #critlib
- @catladylib @modbrarian I've seen it too. Someone else leaves, someone has to take the lead in the meantime. #critlib
- A4 I attended a leadership training program at Cornell, & the ppl the trainer quoted were 100% men. Mostly white. #critlib #microaggressions
- And social workers, nurses, etc. #critlib Our field strangely similar to others https://twitter.com/anterobot/status/656647776126631936 …
- @foureyedsoul do ALA accreditation & standards address? blowback if not? LIBRARIANS must demand that COA.address.gender and discr.#critlib
- 1/3 @thomthomthom We had plenty of opportunities to lead student groups: http://www.hawaii.edu/lis/lis-organizations/ … plus...#critlib
- Women say/hear "I'm sorry" & mean "that's bad", men mean/hear "my fault". Why they never say it. #critlib https://twitter.com/DinahHandel/status/656647982574469120 …
- @ppayne510 The increase in PT ref is nearly criminal. Reference is prob the hardest thing to do...PT don't get any of the suport. #critlib
@PoorCharlotte @catladylib @modbrarian Or it's a promotion/appointment reflecting the organization's priorities over individual. #critlib- @kellykietur If it's not, it's shitty feminism. #critlib
- To use an old term, "pink collar ghetto" #critlib https://twitter.com/ginaschless/status/656648087721476096 …
- A5: Be an advocate for yourself and those around you, to empower them to do the same and provide support. #critlib https://twitter.com/catladylib/status/656647748402442240 …
- @AprilHathcock @kshockey04 none of the tech ppl I know, including ppl working at Google & Microsoft, care or think about Sir Tim #critlib
- Q5 #critlib Feminist leadership looks like my @zinepavilion friends: supportive, encouraging, everyone dedicated to doing their share.
- 2/3 @thomthomthom...plus input into LIS commons redesign in our LIS management class & collaboration w/professionals #critlib
- A3/4: teach on these matters when we can. Students value honest talk about the worlds they're about to enter. #thereoughtabeaclass #critlib
- @CiotaRebecca @ppayne510 And often get less training, more challenging hours to manage, "on call" shifts, etc. #critlib
@catladylib emotional intelligence + vision + experience #critlib- 3/3 @thomthomthom...(app dev workshops & silent auction committee for Hawaiʻi Library Association were two that I worked on) #critlib
- @AprilHathcock @barnlib @sparkymonster I get quiet/meekness projected onto me sometimes. Makes me confused. #critlib
- This. I got the full Lesbian Feminist "all oppression is linked" education & I'm sticking to it! #critlib https://twitter.com/GinaMurrell1/status/656648860287107072 …
@AcornElectric big yes to advocacy! #critlib- @gonesquirrelly "change" is such a bludgeon in our profession - be afraid! Quick, do as I say. Or be doomed. #critlib
- @CiotaRebecca #critlib but extra hire is one way to get experience. Catch 22.
- .@catladylib I'd venture to say...not enough. #critlib
- I agree. Recognizing and addressing where and what the issues are is so important. @melbrarian #critlib
- @kellykietur @kshockey04 Worked many jobs in prev career where discussing salary was firing offense #critlib
A5 leading by example! grateful for feminist leaders who are courageous and kind, and model #worklifebalance #critlib #progressnotperfection- @elizbrary @kellykietur @kshockey04 some states have laws protecting salary convos, but not all and it's so discouraged! #critlib
- @lisahubbell I like this as a shift away from aggression model of leadership #critlib
- @StandingHannah Real estate used to be prestigious & man-dominated, doctors too. More woman enter...and the salaries decrease. #critlib
- Most important phrase I ever learned to say/believe: "I don't have to put up with this" #critlib https://twitter.com/ginaschless/status/656649597708668931 …
- @elizbrary @kellykietur @kshockey04 which of course is often a protected right... http://www.npr.org/2014/04/13/301989789/pay-secrecy-policies-at-work-often-illegal-and-misunderstood … #CritLib
- @foureyedsoul LIS progs report demogr. to ALA & efforts to increase diversity. See who does it on ground--admins or worker bees?#critlib
- Alright, time for your #critpitch for #critlib! And no I'm not talking about the game. Unless you want to, then that's okay.
- love "bring self to work" celebrating successes n creating spaces to be vulnerable #critlib https://twitter.com/lisahubbell/status/656649582219145216 …
- @catladylib Thanks for modding, coming up with great questions, and choosing readings! #critlib
- Disgusting. And I don't think it's legal. #critlib https://twitter.com/elizbrary/status/656649688645541888 …
- @thomthomthom I agree! It's so important, yet also a bit daunting. #critlib
- @elisedunham re: the apologizing, I am all for honest admissions of wrongdoing - I am anti apologies solely designed to shrink you. #critlib
- GREAT discussion #critlib! Holy moly. Thank you @catladylib for moderating my favorite chat I've made it to yet!
- @DinahHandel be realistic in your self assessments, pos and neg! Rep your achievements, make lessons of your shortfalls #critlib
- my #critlib #critpitch is if your place of work has an opening and you want me to be there, let me know.
- Sovereign is s/he who defines the exception to the rule, ie who gets to decide "change" and what change?#critlib https://twitter.com/bfister/status/656649323879530496 …
- Great #critlib! Thanks, @catladylib!
- Thanks so much to @catladylib for hosting this INTENSE #CritLib night!
- @catladylib they do offer a mgmt class, but I believe that supervisors in any capacity should have leadership training #critlib
- Great chat tonight, thanks @catladylib for choosing topic and moderating! #critlib
- Thanks @catladylib for the great readings, Qs and convo #critlib
@catladylib Yes, we can either be debilitated by them or do a hell of a lot of work to be liberated from them. #critlib- @melbrarian can I work for you? I love all your A5 responses tonight. #critlib
- Big ups! Good discussion. Let's keep it up out there. #critlib https://twitter.com/kshockey04/status/656650633966059521 …
- my #critlib #critpitch is to be kind and excellent to yourself
- I think my #critpitch is to check out @jessicahochman / #GenderLIS class project results at ALISE in January! #critlib
- Thanks for a great chat, @catladylib! I'm excited to read through all the tweets I missed! #critlib
- Plz help archive these chats! Only takes about 10min to Storify, let @violetbfox know if yr down to help #critlib https://twitter.com/violetbfox/status/656650894230994944 …
- #critlib #critpitch Concerned that again we didn't discuss my upcoming NYC marathon in any depth. November 1, #66311. Almost there!
- YAY! RT @DinahHandel I think my #critpitch is to check out @jessicahochman / #GenderLIS class project results at ALISE in January! #critlib
- Thank you #critlib community. Great job, @catladylib!
- @RoxanneShirazi A5: 360 assessment. If I am going to assess employees as a supervisor they should assess me, at min. #critlib
- great discussion! thank you @catladylib! #critlib
- Letting others speak for themselves first, then asking questions and hearing the answers #critlib https://twitter.com/lisaflepore/status/656650243560206336 …
