“They Don’t Call It The Library”: On Decentralization
from MSLA Podcast Hosted by MSLA Podcast
Colleen Simpson teaches at a decentralized library in the Lester J. Gates Middle School in Scituate. She wrote an article describing the layout and process of her day, but we dug further and discussed her involvement in the design and implementation of that space, through media literacy and research curricula. The sets of skills and hacks Colleen has gleaned from this decentralized space and responsibility get into areas of circulation, programming and administration.
