One obvious sign that capitalism is bullshit is the fact that you aren't allowed to read books on the job when you're a LIBRARIAN

The child who was recently screaming in the library (no criticism intended, it happens sometimes) was named Xena, and it really feels like their parents should have seen that coming. #LibraryLife

when I was taking a university journalism course titled Navigating Cyberspace in 1995, I never imagined that I would still be using those skills decades later. But working in very small libraries where the website requires hand coding to do a lot of things, I’m using it on a daily basis.

Soooo in further EBSCO sins, one of my consortial colleagues emailed support & got back an AI slop email in reply. It’s from an auto reply email address maybe(? need to compare to past human replies), but signed with a name & title & such.

Did that person use a chat LLM/AI to generate an email, or did EBSCO plug a LLM/AI into their support workflow and automate this? I am curious! And mad! Either way, the email was useless. #LibraryLife

Now shipping! Blending theory and concepts with an unswervingly pragmatic approach, Michael Hanegan and Chris Rosser persuasively argue that libraries are uniquely positioned to lead AI’s ethical and human-centered integration within communities. alastore.ala.org/libgenAI

Library folks: does your library track items that have been promoted (via newsletter etc) to see if the promotion had an impact on circ?

Taking the time to write an email to the new dean about the solid work a member of my staff has done on a patron-facing mini-migration. Supervisors, I advise you do things like this when important but sometimes unnoticeable work happens. #LibraryLife
