Hi there! As most of you know, I’m the open knowledge librarian here at BMCC, and this I believe . . . Knowledge is a public good and a human right. We need to continually develop and defend the knowledge commons so that every human being has access to humanity’s accumulated knowledge. I strive to create spaces that celebrate, spark, and engage the potential of every human being to create knowledge. So many of our students have been taught to be knowledge consumers; at BMCC, they can learn to claim space and raise their voices up as knowledge creators.
My summer book list is too long to include here! But I’m very much looking forward to N.K. Jemison’s Broken Earth Trilogy (how have I not read this already?!?).
So happy to be in community with everyone here and look forward to learning with you!
