Join us for the opening of the 2016 DLF Forum! We'll be introducing Forum fellows, thanking our sponsors and organizers, presenting our first annual DLF Community/Capacity Awards, and hearing an important keynote talk by Stacie Williams.

Keynote: 

"All Labor is Local"

 


Labor, to riff off a more well-known phrase, is an inherently "local" concept—viewed subjectively through the backgrounds of both those who perform it and those in positions of power who create and or influence policy around it. Both perspectives are deeply political. On the eve of Election Day, this keynote will explore the ways in which we, as employees and employers, apply our local experiences to how we perform the labor in libraries and archives, and what we can do to broaden those perspectives to be more inclusive of the communities we hope to serve.
Presenter: Stacie Williams
