Attached is a preprint of an article that I have submitted for the forthcoming special edition of the Journal of Critical Library and Information Studies. “This issue will provide an extended exploration of “how an archival ethics of care can be enacted in real world environments.” https://journals.litwinbooks.com/index.php/jclis/announcement/view/10
My article, “Tear down this (pay)wall!: Equality, equity, liberation for archivists” uses the concept of radical empathy and applies it to a discussion of archival collections made available for sale by for-profit companies.
Some folks have asked me for the pre-print, and I thought it would be easiest to attach it here.
Enjoy!
