Ep. 01: A chat with the Library Writing Cooperative.
In this Parlor Chat, our episodes about demystifying research and scholarship processes, Amber sits down with the Library Writing Cooperative, a group of librarians who have created a space for library workers to share their work and ideas. We’ll learn about how they got started, their First Draft Matchmaker Program, and get a tease about their next initiative, National Article Writing Month!
