In this interview Dr. Grant Campbell from the Faculty of Information and Media Studies at Western University discusses dementia, both his research and how it has affected his loved ones. He makes sometimes surprising connections between the interactions of people living with dementia and their caregivers and topics such as music theory, cataloguing, and information organization. From Ranganathan’s faceted classification to Grice’s implicatures, Campbell makes use of many LIS concepts to help grapple with this challenging topic.

3.7 Teens and New Adults in Libraries 16:19

You never have to apologize for your reading habits. Despite the halo effect that is given to people who say they are “readers”, the reading community is not one homogenous group; It is greatly fragmented and there is always drama and in-fighting taking place. I wanted to provide a defense for those who get ridiculed for enjoying Young Adult literature and show that these demographics are merely suggestions, not rigid rules to follow. https://sowhat.fims.uwo.ca/3-7-teens-and-new-adults-in-libraries…

With a background at the St. Jerome’s University College’s Digital Research Arts and Graphic Environmental Networks lab as a paleographer, and manuscript digitizer for six years, Jordan Tardif explores the impact of Manuscript Digitization on Manuscript Studies. Manuscript repositories and manuscript libraries are libraries as well, and thus the same digitization principles developed in traditional libraries can also apply to materials being digitized by archives, such as newspapers, letters, and journals. https://sowhat.fims.uwo.ca/3-5-manuscript-digitization/ Host and Editor: Jordan Tardif…

In this episode Clarese Greig explores Digital Literacy in Public Libraries with her co-workers. The library branch they work at deals with more tech questions than can be handled most days, so the conversations usually veer towards tech, digital literacy and patron needs. To quote Clarese: "While I do not think it is the library’s responsibility to fix every issue that arises in society, I do think it is the library’s responsibility to take inventory of the issues facing society to see where their services help." https://sowhat.fims.uwo.ca/3-4-digital-literacy-in-public-libraries Transcript: Coming Soon Host and Editor: Clarese Greig…

3.2 Digital Security and Libraries 51:23

Libraries are places of knowledge sharing, and this sharing is in more than just books. Libraries can be very important for sharing information and expertise that normally would be difficult to find otherwise. What other public institutions can both create and share resources that reach audiences like libraries do? What other public institutions could do events like workshops about internet privacy and security? This is an important space where libraries can operate in. Computer security and privacy are a major part of using the internet and understanding where you are vulnerable and how to protect yourself is useful information for anyone using the internet. This is especially important for older people who are less familiar with the threats of being online. Show notes at: https://sowhat.fims.uwo.ca/3-2-computer-security-and-libraries…
