#OurWordsTO Ruth Koleszar-Green shares: The library is the heart and the head of the university, this is where all the research knowledge is kept. The furthest journey any of us will take is from our head to our heart.

#OurWordsTO Ruth Koleszar-Green shares: How to get more indigenous students into library school? Scaffolding. Commit to supporting indigenous student services, internships for undergrad students. Indigenous students need to belong, need to be comfortable being who they are.

#OurWordsTO Ruth Koleszar-Green: Every indigenous nation has sacred stories, stories that we don’t want to, shouldn’t, or can not share. Who makes the decisions about stories of this nature that reside in the archives?
