Robust experimentation over more than a century with hundreds of thousands of test subjects with comparison with control subjects has conclusively shown that reading can and does change lives!

“This is a problem everybody has been attacking as a STEM problem,” Mr. Kobek said in an interview...Cryptographic science, he argued, could not solve Kryptos — “but library science could.”

I’m beginning my transition into & preparing for an MLIS program.
I’m interested in archives, public/academic librarianship & digital.
If you know of any internships, entry-level roles, or volunteer opportunities, I’d appreciate any recommendations

Thank you for reporting this accurately! A lot of times, these false narratives are either 1. created by fearmongers, or 2. created by mistake. Either way, they harm real efforts by librarians to promote #infolit. If you can't trust us, who can you trust? #libraryscience #skybrary #libraries

Currently in awe of the power of technology and the goodness of librarians. I needed an old scholarly article and through a quick web chat with the librarian at my alma mater, I was able to have it emailed to me. The future is now. #Librarians #LibraryScience
