This 100% helps make the case for slow work movements: thoughtful, iterative, purposeful reflection in our work (vs the fast-past innovation for the sake of new, new, new and change, change, change).

"I believe that chasing innovation is toxic and keeps us from really getting to know our patrons and meeting their most pressing needs. We need a major culture change since so many of our organizational structures and values prioritize an innovation agenda. Slow librarianship can provide a route toward more meaningful and impactful technology work in libraries." -Meredith Farkas

Slow Librarianship is the topic of the day (again) at the Core e-forum. It's been a wonderful two days of discussions and reflection, and we're ready to keep building.

I've created a Discord server for everyone who wants to join the community. DM me for an invite, please!

Hi! 👋 Here's a brief to me. I'm a community college librarian in Portland, OR. I write a lot about and slow living, the cult of productivity and workaholism, collective care and solidarity, unions, instructional technologies, teaching, EDIA and antiracist work, critical reflective practice and , and my very zig-zag-y journey through life. I've been blogging at Information Wants to be Free since 2004. meredith.wolfwater.com/
