Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Canadian libraries have a responsibility to respond to the Truth and Reconciliation Calls to Action (2015), Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women and Girls Calls to Justice (2019), and the United Nations Rights of Indigenous Peoples (2007) by decolonizing their policies and practices. This has resulted in many libraries have incorporated initiatives aimed at truth, reconciliation and decolonization into their strategic plans. Yet in order to appropriately engage in this transformative work, library employees often need professional development on the topics of Indigenous history Indigenous knowledges. However, by decolonizing LIS educational programs and creating Indigenous informed curriculum library technicians and librarians would graduate prepared to engage in decolonial and reconciliation initiatives. Drawing on the author's experience as a Métis-European librarian and LIS sessional instructor, this chapter will examine the ways library education can decolonize and incorporate Indigenous knowledges.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
