Library Infrastructures & Citizen Science

Welcome to Library Infrastructures and Citizen Science the second section of the guide series Citizen Science for Research Libraries. The aim of the publication is to inspire researcher and the library community to take a creative approach and take a second look at the infrastructures around them and how they can be applied to citizen science projects. Open science has already expanded the array of tools and practices used by research infrastructure. The challenge is how to take these one step further for citizen science, for example - expanding roles for acknowledgement, in collecting data, or providing pathways for the use of open access by the public.

It's the first day of term and outside the school gates gossip hums, SUVs swarm and Boden abounds. And three very different mothers are about to discover that friends are the only accessories they need. Stay-at-home mum Gwen has three engaging kids and a blissful marriage to Rob. Her biggest worries are a bottom that sometimes keeps moving after she’s stopped and a toddler obsessed with reproductive organs - until two bombshells cause her perfect world to crumble. Working mum Alison is devoted to her daughter, but since juggling motherhood with a career has left her with cellulite to her Achilles, an iguana costume to make and a permanent headache, a larger family is the only thing NOT on her to-do list... Trophy wife Katherine seems rich, glamorous and carefree. In fact, her husband only ever touches her as he guides her into social functions like a butcher sliding a prime cut across a countertop... Her kids barely know she exists either. A deliciously warm, funny and moving take on being a mum, making new friends and dealing with the posturing and politics of the playground - something we never really leave behind...

Camping on a futon and babysitting her nephews is not the summer vacation Anna Elliot had in mind, but then Frida Wentworth rolls back into town - home from conquering the world, one stunning photograph at a time. Anna has never entirely forgiven herself for letting Frida go. And Frida, it would seem, hasn’t forgiven her either. No one knows about their past, thank goodness. But before Anna's very eyes, two of her friends fall under Frida's spell. Set in Auckland, New Zealand, over the holidays, this Sapphic retelling of Jane Austen's Persuasion takes the OG second-chance romance for an antipodean spin, with a splash of forced-proximity and a pinch of love-triangle. Trigger warning for historical suicide (in the backstory).
