Gslisadjuncts Classes on December 5
by James Lowry 26 Nov '24

26 Nov '24

Hi everyone, This is just a reminder that classes scheduled for December 5th do not meet, so that students can attend the GSLIS Conference on campus. This was communicated ahead of the start of term, and again at the adjunct orientation, and should be reflected in all GSLIS syllabi. With thanks, James

Gslisadjuncts FW: Social Sciences Research Seminar
by James Lowry 08 Nov '24

08 Nov '24

From: Kate Pechenkina <Kate.Pechenkina(a)qc.cuny.edu> Date: Thursday, November 7, 2024 at 5:00 PM To: Kate Pechenkina <Kate.Pechenkina(a)qc.cuny.edu> Subject: Social Sciences Research Seminar Dear Colleagues, Our next research seminar is coming up on Monday. I hope many of you will join for an exciting discussion and pizza. 🗓️ Social Sciences Research Seminar Monday, November 11, 12:20-1:30 PM in PH 333 🍕 Pizza will be served! Professor Vikki C. Terrile<https://www.qc.cuny.edu/academics/gslis/vikki-terrile/> (QC GSLIS) "What Librarians and Mothers in Temporary Housing Really Think about Libraries" Professor Terrile, who joined QC GSLIS in 2023, specializes in family homelessness and its intersection with libraries and education. Her research began with outreach work to NYC family shelters as a public librarian and evolved into comprehensive studies of library services for people experiencing homelessness. She examined how youth services librarians conceptualize homelessness and library services, revealing significant gaps in support for homeless families. Through phenomenological analysis, she documented how librarians navigate professional obligations and institutional constraints while serving these vulnerable populations.
