SLA Toronto and TSLIS Network are pleased to invite you to participate in the summer edition of Article Club! We thought we’d take this opportunity as summer wraps up to focus on a hot topic from this year’s SLA Annual Conference: the unlikely relationship between journalism and librarianship. Come join your fellow information professionals for lively discussion and a drink at the Shoeless Joe’s patio! Cost is only your own food and beverages. Everyone is welcome.

Here are a couple articles to get the conversation going:

Is the Line Between Librarianship and Journalism Blurring? By Barbara Jones

At the Crossroads of Journalists and Librarians, We Find Community Engagement, by Joy Mayer
