Description:Jello Biafra, the singer of the punk band, Dead Kennedys, has frequently admonished, "Don't hate the media, become the media." This classic DIY call echoes the well-known advice to "be the change you want to see happen," and this is what LWS2 does. It embodies a change that Yago S. Cura and Max Macias and the authors in this volume want to see happen: to see the library and librarianship become more open, diverse, and civic-minded. Despite our rhetoric of equality, too often libraries and librarianship have been gatekeepers of hegemonic discourse...sometimes by design, sometimes by accident. But they need not be, and that is the point of this volume.Grace Yamada, in the lead essay in this collection, nailed it when she asserted, "Libraries of all kinds can act as a foundational space and early adopters of not only digital technological access, but civic life and culture." Don't hate the space, become the space!
