A new resource, "Mutual Aid at Work" is now available online at https://sites.google.com/view/mutualaidatwork/ and in a PDF version you can download at: (add), under the CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 license.
Originally created by a group from the Archival Workers Collective and the Digital Library Federation's Labor Working Group, "Mutual Aid at Work" provides organizers with a resource to form their own mutual aid networks in the Library, Archive, and Museum (LAM) community. The contributors hope that these mutual aid networks will communally address issues of precarious employment and limited access to critical resources highlighted by, but not originating from, the COVID-19 pandemic.
With appreciation and solidarity, from our many contributors, including Lauren Goodley, Katharina Hering, Mary Kidd, Carli V. Lowe, Caitlin Rizzo, Sandy Rodriguez, Lydia Tang, Jennifer Wachtel, Amy Wickner, and Karly Wildenhaus. Feel free to tag any interested parties.
Please join us to continue the discussion at #SAA23, session 406: Advocating for Archival Workers.
