Radical views behind the (virtual) desk

It’s not all shush-shush out there in the library world. I’ve recently joined up to volunteer at Radical Reference, a great resource for students, information workers, activists and independent journalists. Here’s the opening paragraph of their Mission Statement:

Radical Reference is a collective of volunteer library workers who believe in social justice and equality. We support activist communities, progressive organizations, and independent journalists by providing professional research support, education and access to information. We work in a collaborative virtual setting and are dedicated to information activism to foster a more egalitarian society.

Sounds good, right? I’m looking forward to participating. See you there!
