Come on social justice-loving librarians, we want to celebrate you!!!

Apparently they haven't received any entries for the award yet?? The award is co-sponsored by ALA's SRRT (Social Responsibilities Round Table) and @libraryjuicepress.bsky.social. Neither the nominee nor the submitter need to be an ALA member.

A couple of my colleagues -- and other great librarians -- contribute to this cool new book from Library Juice!

Join us for 2 book launch events for this new title! Part 1: Feb. 24, noon (eastern) libraryjuiceconnections.org/events/slow-... Part 2: March 10 noon (eastern) libraryjuiceconnections.org/events/slow-...

New Book! Out Now! Slow Librarianship: Reflections and Practices Authors describe what slow librarianship means to them in their work and roles while sharing concrete practices and ways to enact the tenets of slow librarianship in your work. https://litwinbooks.com/books/slow-librarianship/

Hi Friends! Did you miss our recent event, "International Perspectives on Librarianship," featuring Loida Garcia-Febo, Robin Kear, and Raymond Pun? (Or maybe you saw it and want to see it again?) Good news! It's now available: libraryjuiceconnections.org/events/inter... #libraries

Today we celebrate the life and work of Joseph Weizenbaum (1923 - 2008), computer scientist and social critic. We were fortunate to publish an extended interview with Weizenbaum: Islands in the Cyberstream (2015). https://litwinbooks.com/books/islands-in-the-cyberstream/

In “Against AI: Critical Refusal in the Library,” I examine LIS as in need of a values-realignment, asking readers to refuse the technosolutionism we are so often offered in place of human-centered possibilities, like taking racism, climate change, and labor rights seriously doi.org/10.1353/lib....

Big News! We're excited to announce that kay slater is the winner of the 2025 Annual Library Juice Paper Contest for her paper, “Against AI: Critical Refusal in the Library,” published in Library Trends https://litwinbooks.com/kailyn-slater-wins-the-2025-annual-library-juice-paper-contest/
