U.S. federal agencies must provide free, immediate public access to peer-reviewed scholarly publications produced w/ support from federal grant $$$. Read about how the Federal Purpose License can enable #OpenAccess in this @Auths_Alliance paper: https://t.co/WsWwA27oQJ

We learn more from reading on paper than on screens.

54 studies, 171k people: we process print more deeply than digital content—as long as it's informational rather than purely narrative.

The paper advantage holds across ages and has grown over time. Long live physical books.

We've been delighted to see instructors bringing their classes in to view the exhibit and discuss how it reflects various aspects of SSU life over the decades.

@dasinfogod So glad to see the UA shoutout!

For this #tbt, @ssulib is looking at materials published pre-2000 to see what experts and scholars were saying about a technology made available to the public in 1993: the World Wide Web. These items, and many more, are on display on the 2nd floor of the Library.

Knowing the names of the custodial staff who clean your office does more to move the university toward equity than any DEI or anti racist bullet point on your CV ever could.

[Sonoma State Library @ssulib]

Bias and inequity in scholarly publishing is an often-neglected topic. Thanks to our UC and California Digital Library for this terrific primer!

Or, bring a t-shirt and use glow-in-the-dark fabric paint and our stencils to spook it up, print some ghoulish creations on the 3d printers, or just glue googly-eyes onto all your possessions. The options are endless!

Get into the horror-day spirit and make a mask while learning a new skill in the Makerspace, tomorrow from 3-5. We'll have patterns, fabric, and other supplies available, with glue guns and sewing machines at the ready.
