The goal of the research is to answer the question: how might we design for public librarians? First, I propose to describe and explain public librarianship through the lens of infrastructures and infrastructuring to help illuminate the breadth and diversity of the work of librarians. In doing so, I also uncover insights about the politics and experience of futures, specifically that futures are socio-material and emerge at different scales through infrastructural relations. Second, I propose a series of design provocations and a set of scenarios that respond to those provocations to suggest opportunities for design that supports public librarianship as infrastructuring. The primary contribution of this work is to the study and practice of social design on the example of public librarianship. The secondary contribution is to the study and practice of futures. \u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E________________________________________________________________________________\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EMicrosoft Teams meeting\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EJoin on your computer or mobile app\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/l\/meetup-join\/19%3ameeting_NGJlY2I1OTMtNWFmYy00MThkLTg5MzktMWZlMzBkYTM0Yjcw%40thread.v2\/0?context=%7b%22Tid%22%3a%22482198bb-ae7b-4b25-8b7a-6d7f32faa083%22%2c%22Oid%22%3a%22e07233a9-060c-421d-810d-3afc4d9c3d79%22%7d\u0022 target=\u0022_blank\u0022\u003EClick here to join the meeting\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/aka.ms\/JoinTeamsMeeting\u0022 target=\u0022_blank\u0022\u003ELearn More\u003C\/a\u003E | \u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/services.gatech.edu\u0022 target=\u0022_blank\u0022\u003EHelp\u003C\/a\u003E | \u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/meetingOptions\/?organizerId=e07233a9-060c-421d-810d-3afc4d9c3d79\u0026amp;tenantId=482198bb-ae7b-4b25-8b7a-6d7f32faa083\u0026amp;threadId=19_meeting_NGJlY2I1OTMtNWFmYy00MThkLTg5MzktMWZlMzBkYTM0Yjcw@thread.v2\u0026amp;messageId=0\u0026amp;language=en-US\u0022 target=\u0022_blank\u0022\u003EMeeting options\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Design for Public Librarianship"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2021-11-29 20:16:53","changed_gmt":"2021-11-29 20:16:53","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2021-12-10T12:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2021-12-10T15:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2021-12-10T15:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2021-12-10 17:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2021-12-10 20:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2021-12-10 20:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78761","name":"Faculty\/Staff"},{"id":"78771","name":"Public"},{"id":"78751","name":"Undergraduate students"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
