Background
Libraries are complex social infrastructures. Libraries do more than simply give access to knowledge. The sharing of texts is a social practice, bringing readers, writers and editors together in an exchange of positions, ideas, approaches and know-how. Libraries are more than just collections of texts, or containers in which they are kept. They are places where many actions are performed, including reading together, annotating, organising and structuring.
Special Issue 19
What is the minimally viable library?
What are its parts?
On which points does the library diverge, or converge?
When do texts become new?
How to sustain a library?
We will begin with searching for proposals for important questions around how we "do" libraries together. We will question indices and indexical attitudes that point toward universalisms, and discover in the process our library-in-the-making.
In a 2019 interview, researcher and architect Dubravka SekuliΔ asks, "what is useful knowledge for people to understand what surrounds them? Or for example, what can help to understand the politics of knowledge distribution". It is clear that what we need is to understand "how to offer people tools that allow them to interpret the position in which they are".
Libraries as:
- distribution networks
- sets of practices
- sites of cultural literacy
- sites of production
- sites of learning
- social spaces of text
Rather than looking only at what a library stores, we will also discover what it produces. We will consider collections as not only comprised of things, but also people and actions. In other words, we will attempt to collectively and individually answer the question "How do we library that?".
