Changing the Conversation About Librarians | Mark Ray | TEDxElCajonSalon

[@SuperGreatSphinx]

“Most people don't realize how important librarians are. I ran across a book recently which suggested that the peace and prosperity of a culture was solely related to how many librarians it contained. Possibly a slight overstatement. But a culture that doesn't value its librarians doesn't value ideas and without ideas, well, where are we?” ― Neil Richard MacKinnon Gaiman

Live it all.

When I was studying to become a library technician in Canada in 1991, it was all about computers. We studied the card catalogue for 1 day, if I recall correctly. We were on the internet although it didn't look like it does now and everything was dial up. I eventually worked in a very large law library, became a school librarian, and now a teacher. I do miss library work, however.

Inspiring message for librarians

[@kellydonivan6513]

Hey...this is my local elementary school district. Also sponsored by my college alma mater.

[@KULDEEPKUMARWEALTH]

Nice Message

[@PalanquinSkies]

My librarian was the one who said to not use Wikipedia and would kick me out when playing a game on the computers. It was a crude game that I made for programming class. I was doing my homework and she kicked me out for it.

School libraries are either being cut or all Makerspaces. How does this help with literacy?

[@syndykevitz1946]

I can appreciate your question Angela! I see that Makerspaces and libraries that incorporate more technology driven ebooks and applications helps gain digital literacy in a world always moving towards more technology. Yes being literate and able to read is very important but so is adapting to change and what the future holds! Maybe getting kids and adults into libraries for technology reasons will also get them in and interested in books and other information sources they can utilize.

[@BeverlyM52]

The cutting goes on. :(
