[Libs-Or] Fw: [IFLA-L] [ IJIDI ] New release! Special issue: Hip hop + LIS in research and practice

[Matthew Baiocchi]

>From The International Journal of Information, Diversity, and Inclusion: Our goal with guest editing this special issue is to  illuminate  how  hip  hop,  as  a  cultural  art  form,  can  afford  LIS  scholars  fresh  new  ways  of constructing knowledge. This call is especially pertinent in areas that have grown stagnant due to the same theoretical lenses being applied to study the same kind of research problems in the LIS field. In short, we call for LIS scholars to leverage hip hop as a way to bring a “brand new flava in ya ear,” as the late rapper Craig Mack said in his hit record, Flava In Ya Ear (1994).

Greetings LIS Colleagues,

I am happy to share that The International Journal of Information, Diversity, & Information (IJIDI) has published a new issue, 6(1/2), at: https://jps.library.utoronto.ca/index.php/ijidi/issue/view/2556.

This release is a tremendous special topic issue entitled "The Global Drumbeat: Permeations of Hip Hop Across Diverse Information Worlds," guest-edited by Dr. Kafi Kumasi of Wayne State University (USA) with Dr. André Brock of the Georgia Institute of Technology (USA). The issue features library and information science (LIS) research that interweaves hip hop with neuroscience, data storytelling and copyright as meaningful aspects of LIS theory and practice. Two field reports present compelling outcomes on centering hip hop in library programming. The issue also features a special creative section with three poems about hip hop, libraries, literacy, and the Black experience. Book reviews are posted, with more to be added soon.

We anticipate that you will enjoy this issue; it is fascinating work that makes an indelible contribution to our global LIS discourse. Please share this publication with your social networks.

Thank you for your continued support of The IJIDI; it is profoundly appreciated.

Best wishes,
Vanessa Irvin, Editor, IJIDI.
