Technology, Capital, and Academic Freedom: Interview with Tim Ribaric
Interview with Tim Ribaric from Brock University about library and information technologies and the role of academic freedom in pushing against the constraints placed by Capital on digital scholarly work. We also discuss Kjøsen, Steinhoff & Dyer-Witheford's book Inhuman Power as an examination of Artificial Intelligence, automation, and labour in the contemporary age.

Episode 18 - On Photocopiers and Murder: A Continuum of Action
In this episode we continue our ever-ongoing discussions on neutrality, intellectual freedom, and dissent. But first we also explore why photocopiers have not improved in so long and why that matters, as well as reject the idea that a price can be placed on a river (yes, we get into climate change). Finally, we connect intersectional feminism to emotional labour in librarianship. We still don't know how we got to all these topics in a single session.

Episode 16 - Metis Librarianship, Digital Literacy, and "Shared" Values
We laugh our way through journeys across the country and continual learning in reconciliation and digital literacy. We also reflect on the idea of serving the profession by giving more, where Sheila introduces the concept of spiritual labour. Finally, we discuss the Metis sash as a symbol and the ultimate technology, and talk about why the term "digital native" is so problematic.

Episode 15 - STEAMing Our Way into Youth Services
We have a chance to pick a youth services librarian-extraordinaire's brain about integrating digital literacy into children's programs, intergenerational gaming matches, and lacy undies on pigs. This is an episode about why coding in libraries matters, if there is, indeed, a difference between print and digital literacies, and what STEAM programming is all about.
