S04E08 – Frankenstein vs. the Apocolypse
from SHOUT! For Libraries Hosted by CJSR 88.5 FM
For this episode, we resurrected three of our favourite segments from the last year. Sam Popowich discusses his book Confronting the Democratic Discourse of Librarianship: A Marxist Perspective, featuring a historical materialist account of library ideology and its development. Next we revisit our first It Came from the Stacks piece, where we unearthed a set of ancient Sumerian tablets from the depths of the library special collections. And we close on an eerily fitting countdown of the top 10 dystopian works of the 2010’s. Music credits: BTSTU - Jai Paul Freezing But Warm - Meydän Jasmine - Jai Paul

What this episode covers
For this episode, we resurrected three of our favourite segments from the last year, including an interview with librarian Sam Popowich that confronts the “neutrality” of librarianship through a Marxist lens, our earliest It Came from the Stacks segment, and an eerily fitting countdown of the top 10 dystopian works of the 2010’s.
