After nearly a century on the air, CBS News Radio is signing off, with the final reports airing tonight. cbsn.ws/49Ab6Wj

So sad to hear of the passing of the brilliant and generous polymath Jonathan Sterne, whose scholarship I’ve admired and greatly appreciated — and the same goes for our too-brief in-person interactions.

Hey Twitter..what you see in this picture is two black male librarians that manage a library together in Las Vegas. Black men make up .3% of the library field! I believe that it is important that when people come into my library that they see people who look like them!
