Was a rude awakening & shock to me to read the Creative Victoria Strategy when it was showcased at the public library summit in 2017, not one mention of public libraries! Reminded by @ProjectSisu today at #radicallibraries #plvn #slvPubLib why are we not at the cultural table?
@ProjectSisu asking question-when libraries are seen as Quiet, clever, curious, amazing, liberating & enabling, places that thrill, have peace luxury & richness, are undersung & overachieving: why do we not have a Seat at the cultural table? #plvn #radicallibraries #slvPubLib
@ProjectSisu ‘Libraries shouldn’t make you feel sad’ People using our libraries feel Wonder, care, energised, serendipity, nourished, exotic, magical, luscious... they feel ‘love’ #radicallibraries #PLVN #slvPubLib
Annie Talve took us in a journey of metaphor researching through the surveys from Creative Libraries - my faves: cornucopia, civic jewel, sanctuary, smorgasbord, brains trust, form of recycling,window on the world - love what you evoke! #radicallibraries #slvPubLib #PLVN
Catching up on #radicallibraries #slvPubLib #plvn tweets. Some great things happening across the state! Love the focus on microbusinesses and human centered design.
No Library fines at Casey Cardinia Libraries - Evidence base to case - reporting no increase in increased lost items, no increase in non compliance, decreased staff time in managing fine collection, decreased stress for vulnerable families. #slvPubLib #PLVN #radicallibraries
An alternate model to Library fines - increased compliance and financial impact considerations - Lost revenue of $100k but a strong case for links to Library plan (& by implication member Council values). #PLVN #slvPubLib #radicallibraries
Beth Luppino on the Radical pilot of eradicating Library fines #radicallibraries #PLVN #slvPubLib implementing a ‘support to comply’ program in case the program need to be reinstated. @CCL

We need to combine the idea of d’Toqueville’s ‘the schoolhouse of Democracy’ and Carnegie’s notion of libraries as the ‘cradle of democracy’. #PLVN #slvPubLib #radicallibraries
What needles are we actually trying to move? When we survey ourselves in libraries maybe we could build a list of a hundred things representing a higher level of civic knowledge? Peter Macleod #PLVN #slvPubLib #radicallibraries
Democracies need libraries. Learning institutions we’ve done a great job organising knowledge. We need to do a better job organising & supporting communities. Collectively we could describe more political & democratic functions. Peter Macleod #radicallibraries #PLVN #slvPubLib
Peter Macleod speaking on Canadian experience with public libraries and especially the Toronto Public Libraries and @masslbp ...are we comfortable being radicals? #radicallibraries #PLVN
