Library Research Forum
The Concordia Library's 17th Annual Research Forum was held on April 26, 2019 at the Loyola Jesuit Hall and Conference Centre. The day included presentations and posters about academic librarians' and archivists' conceptions of research, emerging roles for academic librarians, research paradigms in library and information studies, and more. The keynote speaker was Camille Callison, Learning and Organizational Development Librarian and PhD student, University of Manitoba, on "Changing Landscapes in Libraries, Archives, and Cultural Memory Institutions by Honoring Indigenous Voices and Providing a Space for Reconciliation".
The Librarians' Research Forum Committee for 2018-19 consisted of Michelle Lake (chair), Guylaine Beaudry, Joshua Chalifour, and John Latour.
