Storytelling
Once upon a time before words were written, before cultures and societies were observed and analyzed there was storytelling. Storytelling has been a part of humanity since people were able to communicate and respond to the basic biological urge to explain, educate and enlighten. Cave drawings, traditional dances, poems, songs, and chants are all examples of early storytelling. Stories pass on historical, cultural, and moral information and provide escape and relief from the everyday struggle to survive. Storytelling takes place in all cultures in a variety of different forms. Studying these forms requires an interdisciplinary approach involving anthropology, psychology, linguistics, history, library science, theater, media studies and other related disciplines. New technologies and new approaches have brought about a renewed interest in the varied aspects and elements of storytelling, broadening our understanding and appreciation of its complexity.Anderson, K. E. (2010). Storytelling. In H. J. Birx (Ed.), 21st century anthropology: a reference handbook (pp. 277-286). Thousand Oaks, Calif.: SAGE Publications.This is the author's final version of Chapter 28, Storytelling, in 21st Century Anthropology: A Reference Handbook, H. James Birx, editor.

Librarians’ Use of Images on LibGuides and Other Social Media Platforms
This study compared the use of librarians’ profile images across Web platforms designed for librarian-patron communication. The primary focus was LibGuides profiles at a peer group of ARL institutions. Librarians are currently using a variety of options, including professional head shots, casual head shots, other photos, alternate images, avatars, and no image. Where possible, results were also analyzed by gender. For a smaller selection of libraries, LibGuides photos were compared with Facebook photos to see if different images were used for a professional versus a personal social media setting. This research was done in December 2010 and duplicated in May 2012 to track changes over time. The later study also reviews profile images for the smaller selection of libraries in LinkedIn and ALA Connect. The findings provide a baseline for further comparative research, could also inform individual librarians’ image choices based on patterns among their peers, and gives the profession a starting point for discussions about the types of images librarians use.Peer reviewedThis is an Author's Accepted Manuscript of an Article published in Journal of Web Librarianship (2013), available online at: http://www.tandfonline.com/10.1080/19322909.2013.812473
