Hello All, Happy Thursday! I wanted to share a nice article in the Librarian Wardrobe project that speaks highly of our specialized area of librarianship. http://librarianwardrobe.com/post/17966950737/librarian-wardrobe-uniform-style-edition [cid:[log in to unmask]] Kudos to Rachel for a great read and not-well-known-glimpse into Academic Military Libraries! Rachael Elrod is a Reference and Instruction Librarian at The Citadel, the Military College of South Carolina. She has been in this position since August 2010. Prior to working at The Citadel she was a Library Assistant at the University of Louisville while working on her MSLS from the University of Kentucky Very Respectfully, Andrea Davis -----Original Message----- From: Davis, Andrea (CIV) Sent: Thursday, February 16, 2012 11:32 AM To: Marlatt, Greta (CIV); NPS Dudley Knox Library Staff Cc: New Federal Librarians ([log in to unmask]) Subject: RE: Show the world what a librarian looks like That is a fun new project. I'd also suggest looking at Librarian Wardrobe, http://librarianwardrobe.com, which has been a sensation the past year. There are great interviews along with the self-submissions. For anyone with 5 minutes on their hands, here is a good interview about the intent of the project via one of the dedicated volunteers, Erica Findley: http://americanlibrariesmagazine.org/ala-members-blog/erica-findley-discusses-emerging-leaders-and-librarian-wardrobe Thanks, Andrea Andrea N.

It was inspired by a similar blog called "This is What a Scientist Looks Like." Here's some info from the invitation at http://librarianbyday.net/2012/02/13/this-is-what-a-librarian-looks-like/: --- What: a site to go beyond the bun and challenge old, outdated librarian stereotypes with photos of real librarians in their real lives doing real stuff Who: YOU! The site is up and running and ready for submissions. So find a picture that you think best represents you to the world and submit it! Please don't submit photos of others and be tasteful! This is a fun, light-hearted project, please approach it in that spirit! --- You're also invited to share your name, title, institution and something about your work and/or personal life, but that is up to you. I think it would be great to see bundles of documents staff submit photos here. If you're so inclined, visit http://lookslikelibraryscience.com/submit and submit a photo.
