This was so fun and easy to make. #quixote-themed youtube playlist with some #velazquez thrown in. Ranges from classical to techno-pop to chicanx rap and more. Enjoy! youtube.com/playlist?list=…
@elspragins inspired the idea of bringing music to the class, in turn inspired by @thinmexduke on Twitter

I don't know who needs to hear this, but there are humans putting in a heck of a lot of work behind the research materials and databases you are using via libraries & archives. This labor is largely invisibilized & most are working on a shoestring budget & understaffed
Materials can’t be digitized without humans being hired and payed to digitized them. Librarians are also constrained by adhering to copyright laws in how they can help you.
If you are ever feeling frustrated by your library or archive, remember the people who are working there and maybe ask how you can advocate for them? They surely want to support your research & are doing the best they can-at id suggest that should be ur default assumption

This is a thing of beauty. Big picture thinking and action guide I'd been needing. "Many of the above actions will take less than an hour and require less additional work than organizing a pod. Nonetheless, this might feel like too much to take on."/
"Think carefully about what you are capable of giving. A global pandemic calls for taking unusual measures, and sacrifices and adjustments to the lives we have lived, especially for those who are relatively privileged to be economically secure, able to work from home, and"
"living without the compounding stresses and fears of racial violence and punitive immigration practices. Moreover, racism and injustice continue unless they are disrupted, and disruption requires those who are privileged to give up something, such as their time and resources."

Script to call your reps to protest the ICE int'l student policy (link and thread): docs.google.com/document/d/123…
“Hi. My name is [name] and I’m calling for [lawmaker’s name]. I am a constituent of [district - replace with whatever your district is].
I’m calling on behalf of all the international students in the country impacted by the recent ICE policy issued on July 6th. ICE is threatening to remove all international students whose schools and universities have moved online only due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Just sent off the draft of "'A Rare Opportunity in a Language Class': Bringing Material-Text Pedagogy to Spanish & Portuguese Instruction at The Latin American Library at Tulane" (tentative title) to be considered for an edited volume. Damn proud of myself for finishing a thing.
It's honestly been a struggle to write since having a kid while writing the diss, then finishing the diss and being on the academic job market, and then getting a full-time library job that has me busy all 7.5 hours of the workday. I've often considered giving up
writing altogether. So, today is a day to celebrate. Maybe I'll write that book one day. A mom can dream, anyway.

Curious what librarians who daily/weekly teach college students research/info literacy skills have to say about this Atlantic article. I think the headline is misleading... theatlantic.com/education/arch…
In my experience (just 1 year teaching as a librarian, but having seen more than 400 Tulane undergrads), MANY undergrads prefer digital to print b/c they were never taught to find books on shelves, they are intimidated by the stacks,
and don't necessarily see the need to navigate them because they assume everything is available online, or at least whatever they need for a given project. I usually ask students to close their eyes and raise their hands if they've never looked for a book in the stacks,

Had a great library instruction session last week using postcards+travel guides in an intermediate-level Portuguese language & culture class. Wanted to share because it's easy&cheap to build a postcard collection for teaching and I think the session went great! (thread)
We set up 5 numbered tables, each with a grouping postcards from a different city/region of Brazil and one Brazil travel guidebook. Students spent about 7 mins at each table, and rotated to work at each table throughout the class. We used a timer to keep them moving.
At each table, they had to fill out a worksheet in pairs, using the target language (Portuguese) to describe what they saw in the postcards and try to guess what city/region the postcards illustrated. (having an info deficit is a great way to get students talking)
