The Libdot Manifesto

A quest to evolve librarianship

A new day has come for libraries. A day when libraries can tell their stories with clarity and conviction. A day when libraries can build community based on what makes them unique, alongside people who share their vision for the future they work to create. A day when individuals from all walks and phases of life can get excited about librarianship as a profession, and maintain that excitement after seeing their compensation package. A day when highly specialized skills and talents are tangibly recognized for their worth in the information landscape.

Today, we have finally learned the techniques to measure the ambiguous, the ways to identify each sinew librarianship is comprised of, and measure its makeup and performance to develop a stronger body — a stronger community. We now have the ability to measure supply and demand of the resources our community needs to thrive: the skills, the goods, and the services.

The future of work in libraries will be diverse, remote, flexible, rewarding, efficient, smart, refreshing, cost-effective, empowering — dare we say, delightful.

Special thanks to everyone who counted us out.
