live?
whatare the

what do we mean by library?
what are the

conversations as context
“It’s all about learning…how is this going to fundamentally enrich a conversation?
There isn’t a part of the library that isn’t about learning. Learning is a collaborative
conversation.”

inquiry and learning
centered
libraries as sites of participatory culture
relatively low barriers to artistic expression and civic engagement
strong support for creating and sharing one’s creations with others
what is known by the most experienced ispassed along to novices
members believe that their contributions matter
members feel some degree of social connection with one another (at the least they care what other people think
about what they have created)
a participatory climate is conducive to a library program acting as a powerful and positive sponsor of transliteracy by creating conversations for learning via multiple mediums
transliteracy is the ability to read, write and interact across a range of platforms, tools and media from signing and orality through
handwriting, print, TV, radio and film, to digital social networks

transliteracy is the umbrella for how people are using multiple literacies--traditional (text, art, music) and emerging (digital, new
media, privacy, financial)--to access and share information as well as create new meaning

transliteracy provides us a way of theorizing how these literacies transact with each other for meaning
making

transliteracy is the conceptualization of how we use these literacies than the tools or containers although certainly the ways we access
information, share, and create it have taken on new forms
“embrace the potentials and challenges of this [participatory] emerging culture not as a replacement for existing print practices but
as an expansion of them” ~henry jenkins~
as sponsors of transliteracy, libraries can close the participation gap
knight foundation recommendation 6: integrate digital and media literacy as critical elements for education at all levels through
collaboration among federal, state, and local education officials
“we have to make sure schools and libraries invite critical and active uses of media that strengthen our
democratic potential.” Deborah Brandt
how can libraries invite participate and facilitate transliterate conversations for learning?

the strength and relevance of your library is in the community you and your patrons build
participation and shared ownership will create a library that is THE participatory network in your
learning community
