*Talk Title: What's Critical About Critical Librarianship?*


*Emily Drabinski *Associate Professor, Queens (NY) College Graduate School
of Library and Information Studies, and President, American Library
Association

*Abstract*
Critical librarianship interrogates the past, present and future of
normative library systems, asking both how they came to be as they are and
how they might be made different. Whose ways of knowing are embedded in our
cataloging and classification schemes? What stories do our collections tell
about what matters in the world? This seminar will address these questions
in the context of the current spate of attacks on libraries and librarians
across the country. How can #CritLib help us win the world we want?

*Speaker bio*
Emily Drabinski is associate professor in the Queens (NY) College Graduate
School of Library and Information Studies. She serves as 2023-2024
president of the American Library Association.


Support provided by the William W. Bishop Lectureship Fund.
