We're back from a little unplanned break (a g a i n) and we're here to talk about something we've been thinking about a lot lately: how libraries, museums, and archives can respond (and have been responding) to the refugee crisis. Katherine gets emo about salt lake. Courtney tells some cute stories about the family of Bhutanese refugees she worked with. Guys, we're back.

A Couple of Burnouts | Episode 07

April 5, 2017 • 32 mins

Katherine and Courtney are burnt out. Seriously. They recorded this episode a week ago and are just now posting it. They talk about how burnout happens in fields like theirs, how guilty it makes them feel, and how to get through it. They also tell you what's on their minds this week. And they'll be back with a new episode (and hopefully be less burnt out) next week!

Preserving the Present | Episode 06

March 1, 2017 • 28 mins

In this episode, we discuss Rapid Response Collecting, and how libraries, museums, and archives can implement these tools to preserve the present for the benefit of the future. We use the Victoria and Albert Museum and Wash U’s ‘Documenting Feguson’ as examples. We also introduce a new segment, and talk about Beyonce two separate times. And rant about flappy bird. And talk about shakeweights. Resources: http://bit.ly/2lbUttv

Making Labels Less Boring | Episode 05

February 15, 2017 • 26 mins

Courtney tries to make labels in art museums more interesting. The girls play a game (let's rewrite that label!) and talk about why bad labels can prevent people from coming back to museums & libraries. Katherine doesn't go to museums to read (kidding! mostly...) and Courtney also invents a thing!

State of the Union | Episode 04

February 1, 2017 • 36 mins

In this episode, we discuss how libraries, archives, and museums can deal with the current presidential administration. We talk about rogue twitter, potential policies, the ALA, and what we can do to overcome budget cuts. COURTNEY IS ALSO A PROPHET. Katherine does not recommend stealing the declaration of independence, but that might be one way to #resist. Resources: https://tinyurl.com/ep4lgqr
