Many still do because it’s “easier” and maybe initially cheaper, but we probably shouldn’t. We should be focused instead on standards and interoperability across systems above all else. Would love to see the ILS becoming less important and our data distributed and more flexible

Elles sont étudiantes, professeures, chercheuses, directrice d'un bureau de l'égalité. Elles jonglent entre carrière académique et famille, un équilibre rendu encore plus fragile durant la pandémie de #COVID-19 qu'elles racontent et analysent. puq.ca/catalogue/livres/mate…
Couverture du livre "Maternités académiques et pandémie: lieux, temps et réseaux entre pressions et résiliences. Sous la direction de Amélie Keyser-Verreault et Florence Pasche Guignard, préface de Francine Descarries. La couverture est blanche et rehaussée d'un dessin représentant une femme assise devant un ordinateur entourée d'enfants en train de jouer. Autour, des vignettes représentent un balai, des piles de vaisselle, des livres, l'interface du logiciel Zoom.

Plus de deux ans après la déclaration de pandémie de COVID-19 en mars 2020, c'est le premier ouvrage en français qui documente et analyse le vécu des mères académiques. Je vous invite à en suggérer l'achat à votre bibliothèque municipale ou académique!
