Occupational Injustice: Mental Stress and Chronic Pain in Gig Laborers

Type:: Image
Description/Abstract:: This research analyzes the "syndemic" of mental stress and physical pain among 299 unregulated laborers in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Results reveal that psychological distress increased the risk of physical injury by 28-fold, highlighting a critical link between economic instability and worker health. These findings offer urgent parallels to the U.S. "gig economy," where delivery and warehouse workers face similar occupational injustices without safety nets. The presentation moves beyond ergonomics to propose a Social Justice Framework, challenging attendees to advocate for ethical supply chains and for mental health protections for vulnerable workers, both globally and locally.

Why Do Academic Librarians of Color Stay in the Profession?

Type:: 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.

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

Type:: Image
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.

Slide 022: House at 1501 E Mcmillan

Type:: Image
Description/Abstract:: Slide presentation given by Walter E. Langsam on Desjardins & Hayward, a firm active in the Cincinnati, Ohio area in the late 19th century and early 20th century. Desjardins, S. (Samuel) E. ("Dizzy") (Forestville, Mich., 1856-1916) Highly individual, even eccentric architect; conceivably trained at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts (but not listed by Chafee) or possibly in an atelier as a Frenchman. Practiced on own 1882-1892, 1905, and 1910; with A.W. Hayward, 1893-1903 and 1913-1916; with John G. Drainie, 1906; with John F. Sheblessy, 1907-1909; with Rowland G. Bevis, 1911-1912. Desjardins, buttressed by his various partners and staff, was one of the most creative of Cincinnati’s architects for 30 years, with a fanciful flair in massing, outline, and decoration, often combining elements from different historic sources in a remarkably free way. It was Desjardins’ Cincinnati City Hall competition project, for instance –rather than the more conventional Richardsonian Romanesque design of the winning competitor, Samuel Hannaford & Sons– that was published in the influential American Architect & Building News (9/10/1887). Among Desjardins' and his firm's most important works are the 7th Presbyterian Church at 1721 Madison Rd., SEC Cleinview Ave., E. Walnut Hills, which burnt several years ago (the striking tower remains above the modern sanctuary); as well as churches of the Christian denomination in Paris, Winchester, and Cynthiana, Ky. A 1904 account mentions a distillery in Old Mexico, a summer cottage in Nova Scotia, and a church in Alaska. The Greek Revival Bell House in Bell Court in Lexington, Ky., was lavishly remodeled by Desjardins after a fire in the 1880s, and is now open to the public. It was suburban residences, however, that probably gave Desjardins' picturesque talent the freest rein. A most valuable source, The Autograph Book of Suburban Houses, prepared by Desjardins & Hayward in 1895, has just been discovered. It appears to consist of about 175 sheets of exquisite India-ink original drawings (hence the name "Autograph Book") of about 75 houses, most in the Cincinnati area (but not including the Ravogli House). For each residence, there is a perspective of the exterior, in great detail and framed by convincing foliage; a number of houses also have first and second floor plans, and a very few also have interior views of the entrance-stair-halls. These designs vary from Richardsonian Romanesque, Chateauesque, "Queen Anne" and Shingle Style, to early Colonial Revival, but usually have quaint features of their own. The interior plans also reveal some fantastic spatial affects, particularly in the treatment of staircases and polygonal rooms. Many of these houses survive, although some are in deteriorated condition in no-longer-fashionable neighborhoods. Desjardins & Hayward exhibited residences in Cincinnati (as part of the AIA Circuit Drawings show) at the 1st exhibit sponsored by the Cincinnati Chapter of the American Institute of Architects held at the Cincinnati Art Museum in 1901; designs for a university and a church at the 2nd CAIA/CA (1902); and a court house, competition design for the Cincinnati Law school, et al., at the 3rd CAIA/CAM (1903). Desjardins & Sheblessy, interestingly, exhibited also at the 1st CAIA/CAM (1901; when J.F. Sheblessy was probably still located in Louisville); and various buildings at the 4th CAIA/CAM (1908). An article on "The Genius of Michael Angelo [sic]" by Desjardins, originally given before the Cincinnati Chapter of the AIA on May 20, 1902, was published in The American Architect, LXXVI, 1382 (June 21, 1902), 91-93. Obituary, Western Architect & Builder, XXIV, 7 (12/1916); Desjardins & Hayward advertisement, "A Tour of Fourth Street, Cincinnati" (ca. 1892); numerous listings for individual buildings in AA&BN, IA, AR, and WA&B; Nuxhall, SGC, 23, Lot 2.

Description/Abstract:: Slide presentation given by Walter E. Langsam on Desjardins & Hayward, a firm active in the Cincinnati, Ohio area in the late 19th century and early 20th century. Desjardins, S. (Samuel) E. ("Dizzy") (Forestville, Mich., 1856-1916) Highly individual, even eccentric architect; conceivably trained at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts (but not listed by Chafee) or possibly in an atelier as a Frenchman. Practiced on own 1882-1892, 1905, and 1910; with A.W. Hayward, 1893-1903 and 1913-1916; with John G. Drainie, 1906; with John F. Sheblessy, 1907-1909; with Rowland G. Bevis, 1911-1912. Desjardins, buttressed by his various partners and staff, was one of the most creative of Cincinnati’s architects for 30 years, with a fanciful flair in massing, outline, and decoration, often combining elements from different historic sources in a remarkably free way. It was Desjardins’ Cincinnati City Hall competition project, for instance –rather than the more conventional Richardsonian Romanesque design of the winning competitor, Samuel Hannaford & Sons– that was published in the influential American Architect & Building News (9/10/1887). Among Desjardins' and his firm's most important works are the 7th Presbyterian Church at 1721 Madison Rd., SEC Cleinview Ave., E. Walnut Hills, which burnt several years ago (the striking tower remains above the modern sanctuary); as well as churches of the Christian denomination in Paris, Winchester, and Cynthiana, Ky. A 1904 account mentions a distillery in Old Mexico, a summer cottage in Nova Scotia, and a church in Alaska. The Greek Revival Bell House in Bell Court in Lexington, Ky., was lavishly remodeled by Desjardins after a fire in the 1880s, and is now open to the public. It was suburban residences, however, that probably gave Desjardins' picturesque talent the freest rein. A most valuable source, The Autograph Book of Suburban Houses, prepared by Desjardins & Hayward in 1895, has just been discovered. It appears to consist of about 175 sheets of exquisite India-ink original drawings (hence the name "Autograph Book") of about 75 houses, most in the Cincinnati area (but not including the Ravogli House). For each residence, there is a perspective of the exterior, in great detail and framed by convincing foliage; a number of houses also have first and second floor plans, and a very few also have interior views of the entrance-stair-halls. These designs vary from Richardsonian Romanesque, Chateauesque, "Queen Anne" and Shingle Style, to early Colonial Revival, but usually have quaint features of their own. The interior plans also reveal some fantastic spatial affects, particularly in the treatment of staircases and polygonal rooms. Many of these houses survive, although some are in deteriorated condition in no-longer-fashionable neighborhoods. Desjardins & Hayward exhibited residences in Cincinnati (as part of the AIA Circuit Drawings show) at the 1st exhibit sponsored by the Cincinnati Chapter of the American Institute of Architects held at the Cincinnati Art Museum in 1901; designs for a university and a church at the 2nd CAIA/CA (1902); and a court house, competition design for the Cincinnati Law school, et al., at the 3rd CAIA/CAM (1903). Desjardins & Sheblessy, interestingly, exhibited also at the 1st CAIA/CAM (1901; when J.F. Sheblessy was probably still located in Louisville); and various buildings at the 4th CAIA/CAM (1908). An article on "The Genius of Michael Angelo [sic]" by Desjardins, originally given before the Cincinnati Chapter of the AIA on May 20, 1902, was published in The American Architect, LXXVI, 1382 (June 21, 1902), 91-93. Obituary, Western Architect & Builder, XXIV, 7 (12/1916); Desjardins & Hayward advertisement, "A Tour of Fourth Street, Cincinnati" (ca. 1892); numerous listings for individual buildings in AA&BN, IA, AR, and WA&B; Nuxhall, SGC, 23, Lot 2.

Desjardins & Hayward exhibited residences in Cincinnati (as part of the AIA Circuit Drawings show) at the 1st exhibit sponsored by the Cincinnati Chapter of the American Institute of Architects held at the Cincinnati Art Museum in 1901; designs for a university and a church at the 2nd CAIA/CA (1902); and a court house, competition design for the Cincinnati Law school, et al., at the 3rd CAIA/CAM (1903). Desjardins & Sheblessy, interestingly, exhibited also at the 1st CAIA/CAM (1901; when J.F. Sheblessy was probably still located in Louisville); and various buildings at the 4th CAIA/CAM (1908). An article on "The Genius of Michael Angelo [sic]" by Desjardins, originally given before the Cincinnati Chapter of the AIA on May 20, 1902, was published in The American Architect, LXXVI, 1382 (June 21, 1902), 91-93. Obituary, Western Architect & Builder, XXIV, 7 (12/1916); Desjardins & Hayward advertisement, "A Tour of Fourth Street, Cincinnati" (ca. 1892); numerous listings for individual buildings in AA&BN, IA, AR, and WA&B; Nuxhall, SGC, 23, Lot 2.

Description/Abstract:: Slide presentation given by Walter E. Langsam on Desjardins & Hayward, a firm active in the Cincinnati, Ohio area in the late 19th century and early 20th century. Desjardins, S. (Samuel) E. ("Dizzy") (Forestville, Mich., 1856-1916) Highly individual, even eccentric architect; conceivably trained at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts (but not listed by Chafee) or possibly in an atelier as a Frenchman. Practiced on own 1882-1892, 1905, and 1910; with A.W. Hayward, 1893-1903 and 1913-1916; with John G. Drainie, 1906; with John F. Sheblessy, 1907-1909; with Rowland G. Bevis, 1911-1912. Desjardins, buttressed by his various partners and staff, was one of the most creative of Cincinnati’s architects for 30 years, with a fanciful flair in massing, outline, and decoration, often combining elements from different historic sources in a remarkably free way. It was Desjardins’ Cincinnati City Hall competition project, for instance –rather than the more conventional Richardsonian Romanesque design of the winning competitor, Samuel Hannaford & Sons– that was published in the influential American Architect & Building News (9/10/1887). Among Desjardins' and his firm's most important works are the 7th Presbyterian Church at 1721 Madison Rd., SEC Cleinview Ave., E. Walnut Hills, which burnt several years ago (the striking tower remains above the modern sanctuary); as well as churches of the Christian denomination in Paris, Winchester, and Cynthiana, Ky. A 1904 account mentions a distillery in Old Mexico, a summer cottage in Nova Scotia, and a church in Alaska. The Greek Revival Bell House in Bell Court in Lexington, Ky., was lavishly remodeled by Desjardins after a fire in the 1880s, and is now open to the public. It was suburban residences, however, that probably gave Desjardins' picturesque talent the freest rein. A most valuable source, The Autograph Book of Suburban Houses, prepared by Desjardins & Hayward in 1895, has just been discovered. It appears to consist of about 175 sheets of exquisite India-ink original drawings (hence the name "Autograph Book") of about 75 houses, most in the Cincinnati area (but not including the Ravogli House). For each residence, there is a perspective of the exterior, in great detail and framed by convincing foliage; a number of houses also have first and second floor plans, and a very few also have interior views of the entrance-stair-halls. These designs vary from Richardsonian Romanesque, Chateauesque, "Queen Anne" and Shingle Style, to early Colonial Revival, but usually have quaint features of their own. The interior plans also reveal some fantastic spatial affects, particularly in the treatment of staircases and polygonal rooms. Many of these houses survive, although some are in deteriorated condition in no-longer-fashionable neighborhoods. Desjardins & Hayward exhibited residences in Cincinnati (as part of the AIA Circuit Drawings show) at the 1st exhibit sponsored by the Cincinnati Chapter of the American Institute of Architects held at the Cincinnati Art Museum in 1901; designs for a university and a church at the 2nd CAIA/CA (1902); and a court house, competition design for the Cincinnati Law school, et al., at the 3rd CAIA/CAM (1903).

Desjardins & Hayward exhibited residences in Cincinnati (as part of the AIA Circuit Drawings show) at the 1st exhibit sponsored by the Cincinnati Chapter of the American Institute of Architects held at the Cincinnati Art Museum in 1901; designs for a university and a church at the 2nd CAIA/CA (1902); and a court house, competition design for the Cincinnati Law school, et al., at the 3rd CAIA/CAM (1903). Desjardins & Sheblessy, interestingly, exhibited also at the 1st CAIA/CAM (1901; when J.F. Sheblessy was probably still located in Louisville); and various buildings at the 4th CAIA/CAM (1908). An article on "The Genius of Michael Angelo [sic]" by Desjardins, originally given before the Cincinnati Chapter of the AIA on May 20, 1902, was published in The American Architect, LXXVI, 1382 (June 21, 1902), 91-93. Obituary, Western Architect & Builder, XXIV, 7 (12/1916); Desjardins & Hayward advertisement, "A Tour of Fourth Street, Cincinnati" (ca. 1892); numerous listings for individual buildings in AA&BN, IA, AR, and WA&B; Nuxhall, SGC, 23, Lot 2.

Description/Abstract:: Slide presentation given by Walter E. Langsam on Desjardins & Hayward, a firm active in the Cincinnati, Ohio area in the late 19th century and early 20th century. Desjardins, S. (Samuel) E. ("Dizzy") (Forestville, Mich., 1856-1916) Highly individual, even eccentric architect; conceivably trained at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts (but not listed by Chafee) or possibly in an atelier as a Frenchman. Practiced on own 1882-1892, 1905, and 1910; with A.W. Hayward, 1893-1903 and 1913-1916; with John G. Drainie, 1906; with John F. Sheblessy, 1907-1909; with Rowland G. Bevis, 1911-1912. Desjardins, buttressed by his various partners and staff, was one of the most creative of Cincinnati’s architects for 30 years, with a fanciful flair in massing, outline, and decoration, often combining elements from different historic sources in a remarkably free way. It was Desjardins’ Cincinnati City Hall competition project, for instance –rather than the more conventional Richardsonian Romanesque design of the winning competitor, Samuel Hannaford & Sons– that was published in the influential American Architect & Building News (9/10/1887). Among Desjardins' and his firm's most important works are the 7th Presbyterian Church at 1721 Madison Rd., SEC Cleinview Ave., E. Walnut Hills, which burnt several years ago (the striking tower remains above the modern sanctuary); as well as churches of the Christian denomination in Paris, Winchester, and Cynthiana, Ky. A 1904 account mentions a distillery in Old Mexico, a summer cottage in Nova Scotia, and a church in Alaska. The Greek Revival Bell House in Bell Court in Lexington, Ky., was lavishly remodeled by Desjardins after a fire in the 1880s, and is now open to the public. It was suburban residences, however, that probably gave Desjardins' picturesque talent the freest rein. A most valuable source, The Autograph Book of Suburban Houses, prepared by Desjardins & Hayward in 1895, has just been discovered. It appears to consist of about 175 sheets of exquisite India-ink original drawings (hence the name "Autograph Book") of about 75 houses, most in the Cincinnati area (but not including the Ravogli House). For each residence, there is a perspective of the exterior, in great detail and framed by convincing foliage; a number of houses also have first and second floor plans, and a very few also have interior views of the entrance-stair-halls. These designs vary from Richardsonian Romanesque, Chateauesque, "Queen Anne" and Shingle Style, to early Colonial Revival, but usually have quaint features of their own. The interior plans also reveal some fantastic spatial affects, particularly in the treatment of staircases and polygonal rooms. Many of these houses survive, although some are in deteriorated condition in no-longer-fashionable neighborhoods. Desjardins & Hayward exhibited residences in Cincinnati (as part of the AIA Circuit Drawings show) at the 1st exhibit sponsored by the Cincinnati Chapter of the American Institute of Architects held at the Cincinnati Art Museum in 1901; designs for a university and a church at the 2nd CAIA/CA (1902); and a court house, competition design for the Cincinnati Law school, et al., at the 3rd CAIA/CAM (1903).
