It’s easy to get caught up with looking at the Library through a data lens, whereas in reality it is a very physical thing. In this class we’ll look at the day-to-day workings of the library. We’ll look at projects which have engaged with institutional infrastructure, and we’ll collectively imagine ways to creatively explore the LOC’s labryntine workings.
