In this episode, we talk with James Roussain, the William D. Sharpe Chief Librarian and Director of Special Collections at the John M. Kelly Library at St. Michael’s College at the University of Toronto. In both his paper and our discussion, James critiques the invisibility of academic librarians and explains the barriers faced as they sought to professionalize their field, helping us understand the complexity of information sciences and how universities really can’t function without librarians.
