  • After Brongniart: Defining the Word “Ceramic” and the Persistence of “Burnt Stuff”

    Article thumbnail: After Brongniart: Defining the Word “Ceramic” and the Persistence of “Burnt Stuff”
    Type:
    Article
    Description/Abstract:
    As I have previously shown, Alexandre Brongniart established a coherent science of ceramics. By the mid-nineteenth century, Brongniart had popularised the term "la céramique" as a widely-applicable name for the field of pottery and porcelain making, and other related arts. In the Twentieth Century, ceramic manufacturing became increasingly technical. The inclusive field of artisans and industrialists that Brongniart had once envisioned was fracturing. Voices called for the separation of pottery making from experimental, industrial ceramics and the meaning of the term “ceramics” was hotly debated. Numerous etymologies were traced, but, as the predominant language of science transferred from French to English, none of the twentieth-century authors recognized Brongniart’s key role in the invention of the term. Critically, this language debate coincided with and reflected the global politics, nationalism, and warfare of the first half of the Twentieth Century.

  • Alexandre Brongniart and the Arts of the Earth: Coining “La Céramique”

    Article thumbnail: Alexandre Brongniart and the Arts of the Earth: Coining “La Céramique”
    Type:
    Article
    Description/Abstract:
    Taking on the task of ordering the sciences related to pottery and clay-based objects, natural historian and porcelainier Alexandre Brongniart sought a new way of describing the ancient practice. Early in his forty-seven-year career as director of the Sèvres Porcelain Manufactory, Brongniart developed a research center for the advanced study of pottery and porcelain making. Brongniart recognized that an inclusive and distinct term for the field was necessary, but it had to be introduced carefully, so that it was welcomed rather than rejected as presumptuous. Through close reading of Brongniart’s writings, as well as contemporary periodicals and the texts of other authors, the development of the word “ceramic” – originally introduced by Brongniart and his associates in French as “la céramique” – can be traced closely. I show that this was a deliberate, methodical, and years-long effort to create a durable, comprehensive term.

    Description/Abstract:
    The presenters of this poster have created a free, flexible, and reflective curriculum that provides library workers with the foundational knowledge and specialized skills necessary to conduct and publish rigorous original research in an effort toward diversifying and improving LIS literature and promoting lifelong learning. LibParlor Online Learning (LPOL) aims to revolutionize continuing education for librarians by offering a robust curriculum that addresses current gaps in librarian education regarding research skills and scholarly communication through a flexible and regularly updated curriculum. This poster will present the mission and vision of LPOL, showcase key resources, and explore possible paths through the curriculum. Objective 1: Identify key resources available through the LPOL curriculum Objective 2: Articulate the ways LPOL could be utilized at their organization Objective 3: Explore possible paths for engaging with the curriculum depending on the goals and institutional context of the learner.

  • Why Do Academic Librarians of Color Stay in the Profession?

    Image
    Description/Abstract:
    While there has been a steady increase in scholarship about why librarians of color leave the profession, there has been very little written about those who choose to stay. This research will ask librarians currently working in academic libraries in the United States “what factors have influenced you to stay in the LIS field thus far?” This poster will provide preliminary results from this study, invite academic librarians to share their own experiences, outline recommendations for library leaders, and offer solutions to improve the working conditions of academic librarians of color.

  • Introducing LibParlor Online Learning: An Open-Source Curriculum for LIS Researchers

    Document thumbnail: Introducing LibParlor Online Learning: An Open-Source Curriculum for LIS Researchers
    Type:
    Document
    Description/Abstract:
    Have you wanted to pursue your own research in Library and Information Science (LIS) but are unsure of how to start? You aren’t alone - the lack of affordable, accessible, and effective training opportunities means many library workers do not have the resources, time, or support to learn how to do research effectively, which leads to a field that lacks diverse, inclusive, and robust scholarship. Utilizing funds granted by the Institute of Museum and Library Sciences, the presenters of this session have created a free, sustainable curriculum that provides library workers with the foundational knowledge and specialized skills necessary to conduct and publish rigorous original research in an effort toward improving LIS literature and promoting lifelong learning. This curriculum centers reflection and encourages learners to use their own lived experiences to inform their research journey, while also offering vital information that serves to democratize the often-privileged information around research and publishing for the public good. This presentation will serve as the official launch of LibParlor Online Learning: An Open Source Curriculum for LIS Researchers, and will share preliminary pilot participant data to demonstrate how the curriculum has resonated with learners. Attendees interested in LIS research will learn how this curriculum could be of use to their own professional development as well as others in the field. Attendees will also be able to evaluate the curriculum and receive support from the presenters on how to embed this program into their own library organizations to support a robust culture of research.

    Type:
    Document
    Description/Abstract:
    This presentation provides an overview of LibParlor Online Learning, a free, open-source online curriculum of learning modules, and share how this professional development program will build the capacity for academic Library and Information Science (LIS) professionals to conduct and publish rigorous original research. The lack of affordable, accessible, and effective training opportunities means many librarians do not have the resources, time, or support to learn how to do research, and this leads to a field that lacks diverse, inclusive, and robust scholarship. The presenters have created grant funded open-source online curriculum that will provide LIS professionals with the foundational knowledge and specialized skills necessary to conduct and publish rigorous original research. This work will democratize the often privileged information around research and publishing in an effort toward diversifying and improving LIS literature.

  • Building a community of librarian researchers: What we learned from creating LibParlor

    Description/Abstract:
    The Librarian Parlor (aka LibParlor or #LibParlor) is an online space ( https://libparlor.com) for conversing, sharing expertise, and asking questions about the process of pursuing, developing, and publishing library research. LibParlor provides a community for new-to-research library workers as they consider a research agenda and provide support as they may face a number of challenges. LibParlor aims to address these challenges in part by collecting and showcasing honest reflections, conversations, and how-tos from library professionals engaged in library research. In providing this space, LibParlor aims to spark conversation and cultivate a community of researchers. This poster presents the mission and vision of LibParlor, how we got started, some of the work we’ve done, and plans for the future. We share what we have learned through the formation of an online community, including the importance of having established workflows, detailed editorial policies, and clear communication between members of the team as well as writers. This poster shares our lessons learned and takeaways for others wanting to start a new group. For example, early on we spent a considerable amount of time developing internal and external workflow documents. However, now our processes are documented and clear for contributors. We would also provide recommendations for getting buy-in from major stakeholders before starting a project like this.
