Image text reads: I am currently looking for participants to interview for my MLIS thesis, exploring the lived experiences of autistic librarians in Ireland. The goal of this research is to highlight the experiences of autistic librarians, a group that have been significantly understudied in LIS literature, with no research existing for the Irish context.
Are you a librarian who self-identifies as autistic? Do you live in Ireland? I would love to interview you for my thesis!
If you are interested in participating, contact me at grace.dolan1@ucdconnect.ie.
If you donβt fit the demographic but would still like to help out, please share this post!

Day 3 of #CALC25 and it's been a whirlwind of ideas, reflections & experiences. What's flooding my mind right now? - #CriticalLibrarianship #CriticalIL and how this can be effectively applied to my role. Lots of reading to do! π
