I know lots of people have been citing my blog posts on slow librarianship because there's not much in the scholarly literature as of yet. Finally, here's a book chapter that provides a nice introduction to slow librarianship and the neoliberal timescape we're fighting against! #slowlibrarianship

Today's #slowlibrarianship talk was so fun, mainly because the attendees had fantastic question and shared some really key insights from their own lives. I love chatting about slow librarianship and this was such a rich discussion!
Working through questions today: What are the values you have in your personal or work life? What are the priorities and values of your department, institute and broader community? #slowlibrarianship #MLANET25
On Small Business Saturday* give yourself the gift of a slower pace in 2025 *Or whenever the algorithm shows you this! 😂 Slow Librarianship for Sustainable Success angelapashia.com/slow
Slow Librarianship is about rejecting the “do more with less” mentality that drives us to burnout. We focus instead on doing high quality work that gets the outcomes that you AND your community value most.
Pushing yourself into burnout isn’t serving your community. It’s wasting resources. Slow Librarianship is about clearly defining priorities and making sure that we stay focused on doing the work that matters most.
If you feel like you don’t have time to think about this now, that means you NEED to hit pause and do this work! Running nonstop makes you waste time on stuff that doesn’t support your goals or serve your community.
It's Small Business Saturday.
This year, make an investment in yourself: give yourself the gift of a slower pace in 2025.
