Library & Information Science

Convinced of the need to be a conent curator in my school - looking for the best way to start this, how to implement a manageable plan and ways to increase my content curation competency.

With students accessing different kinds of material and the same material in different ways, the OPAC and vertical file may not be the best way to lead your students to the best content.  This article shows differing ways of attacking the problem.

Good examples of content curation tools for school librarians and teachers/students.

Great infographic from Joyce Valenza and Gwyneth Jones.

Qu'est-ce que les profs doc enseignent? Un peu de vocabulaire anglais pour et sur la culture informationnelle.

Cet ouvrage, richissime de textes pour comprendre la lecture numérique est introduit par Alan Liu.

Comment faire pour apprendre à appréhender cette lecture numérique?

"We thought we knew what "writing" means, but now "encoding" makes us wonder (and vice versa). So, too, "reading" and "browsing" (as well as related activities like searching, data-mining, and data-visualization) destabilize each other. The same applies to all the other pairs in this list, and many others that could be added. The task of studying new media, it might be said, is to help us better to understand what it meant to write, read, and imagine in the past; while, inversely, that of studying old media is to help us appreciate what it now means to encode, browse, simulate, etc. "Digital literary studies" should make that possible.

"We" are always mediated creatures, and as such are fully alive in culture when old and new media — the ancestors and children of our self images — collaborate to allow us to encounter the imagination that we could be other."
