Academic librarians play a critical role in scholarly communication—and the ability to clearly articulate & defend this role is crucial. Today's 9am preconference, @lucysantosgreen.bsky.social is diving into strategies to communicate the library's value. #CHSConf25 #Charleston2025

Lack of visibility = lack of existence. If people don't know where something is, the assumption isn't that it is lost, it's that it *isn't there*... @lucysantosgreen.bsky.social #chsconf2025 #charleston2025

...Awareness is about developing a meaningful, detailed & thorough understanding of the library's role in student, faculty & staff growth & development; the achievement of an institution's priorities; & the achievement of a state's priorities @lucysantosgreen.bsky.social #chsconf2025 #charleston2025

"You need to always be mindful of what you bring to the table -- because it is vast, and it is powerful" @lucysantosgreen.bsky.social #chscon2025 #charleston2025

“In 1860, more than 32 percent of free American workers — meaning they weren’t enslaved — either owned a farm or labored on one. It was the single most common job in almost every state for which we have data. Today, farmers’ share of the workforce has plunged to just 0.3 percent.”

I know it's rough out there, but I could really use a few more paid subscribers to round out October. I'll be starting a new series next month, about my favorite conspiracy theory media figure, and you won't want to miss it! patreon.com/MikeRothschild

Basic research is easily mocked because it can seem impractical, but, in fact, it is a major driver of economic growth. “The return on investment in basic research—the return to society—is very high, typically multiple dollars back per dollar invested.” — @michael-marshall.bsky.social @Nature.com
