The Final Chapter for Some
In a quiet town where the most dramatic stories are found on bookshelves, a real-life horror unfolds. The local library, once a sanctuary of knowledge, now becomes the epicentre of a chilling mystery as staff members meet untimely ends. These were ordinary individuals, deeply embedded in their daily routines, now silenced forever. Yet, every death tells a story. Behind the façade of daily transactions and book returns lurk secrets desperate to remain unread. Someone harbours a truth so dark, they’re willing to kill to keep it. Who holds such a deadly secret? And who will be the next to reach their story’s ominous conclusion in The Final Chapter for Some?

Confronting Power, Theorizing Gender
Extrait de la couverture : "This anthology of Caribbean feminist scholarship has several unique features. It exploses gender relations as regimes of power and consolidates and advances indigenous feminist theorizing. A particularly strong section of the collection deconstructs marginality and masculinity in the Caribbean and provides ground-breaking research with policy implications. The major breakthrough is the recognition that this area of research includes both men and women as integral to a more adequate conceptualization of society, polity and economy, thereby enabling scholars to address more fully the realities of social life. The temper of the times suggests that a significant watershed in gender studies has been reached."

Their aim appears to have been making even better a system that, despite weaknesses, was clearly the best in Canada. Three distinctive trends emerged in Ontario librarianship after the 1930s: first, a growing sense of professionalism in librarianship; second, an enhanced sense of belonging to a pan-Canadian library movement that in 1946 would result in the formation of the Canadian Library Association; and third, a heightened awareness of the competi...
