[Josh Shepperd @joshshepperd]

Entering year ten of my appointment as the first and only Sound Fellow of the Library of Congress. I have no idea how I got here. The advocacy and infrastructure work associated with the role has been good, nearly impossible, and worthwhile. https://t.co/wlkKHiyMYz

So sad to hear of the passing of the brilliant and generous polymath Jonathan Sterne, whose scholarship I’ve admired and greatly appreciated — and the same goes for our too-brief in-person interactions.

Hey Twitter..what you see in this picture is two black male librarians that manage a library together in Las Vegas. Black men make up .3% of the library field! I believe that it is important that when people come into my library that they see people who look like them!
