discouraging to see time & time again how totally okay faculty are with sacrificing library/cultural heritage workers to a global pandemic all for the sake of their super important research. solidarity!
lives > your research. why is it so difficult for people to be human beings?

1. Many librarians are highly skilled and possess graduate degrees (often multiples!). I've witnessed this "surprise" even among faculty in academia😔
2. Librarianship is complex and offers diverse career paths. We DO have specializations. We're not all catalogers or do reference
