radical reference: answering questions from those who question authority
Radical Reference is a service provided by library workers from all over the United States to give
assistance to demonstrators at the Republican National Convention in New York City. We will answer your reference questions via blog, e-mail, chat, and in the street.
Blog: http://www.radicalreference.info
Ask your question by filling out a form. Your privacy will be protected.
Email: librarians [at] radicalreference.info
Street: Look for librarians wearing baseball caps (tan with a blue bill) with an "I" on it if you need legal info, subway directions, a bathroom, or have any other questions.
News: We have a one-hour workshop prepared and available to indymedia journalists on fact checking and evaluating sources for accuracy, authority, coverage, currency, and objectivity. Contact info [at] radicalreference.info to schedule a session.
Librarians: Write info [at] radicalreference.info to volunteer your services. Law and News librarians and those who can read & write other languages especially sought, but all will be put to work.
“…librarians are more freedom fighters than shushers.” Ms. Magazine online http://www.msmagazine.com/dec03/woty2003_hayden.asp
We’ve got access to hundreds of expensive subscription databases
…and we know how to use them!
