CIRI Blog Overview

CIRI blog is a place for iSchool community members to share updates on their research projects, innovative ideas for advancing online teaching and learning, experiences with emerging technologies, thoughts on research methods, and whatever else is percolating in their minds. It’s a treasure trove of inspiration and knowledge.

New posts are published monthly. We encourage you to visit the blog often and share your comments.  

The most recent blog post was authored by iSchool student Jerrid Lee Miller. He’s actively engaged in research, and has one book chapter published, another under review, and two conference presentations this summer. In this post of his personal reflection, he explores “archival cool” as a practice of selfless service, empathy, and bridge-building that can break down silos and make archives more inclusive. Read the blog post on CIRI Blog.

“The archival cool is making time for yourself and making time for others. It is giving all you have to give to the circle of people around you. They are your supporters, your champions, and your fans. If you expect nothing in return, it’s selfless.” - Jerrid Lee Miller
