Confronting the Canadian genocide: the anniversary of the Mount Polley tailings toxic spill in the Cariboo region, the largest in British Columbia history: Unceded xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) territories, Monday, August 1, 2016.
"Secwepemc peoples are calling on all to come and stand with us in resistance against mining and the provincial government's decision to re-issue a full permit for Mount Polley. Indigenous Peoples are at the forefront of the impacts and consequences of climate change. The root of climate change in Canada is the continuing genocide of Indigenous Peoples, that is, the continuation of destructive and dangerous resource extractive projects approved by the Provincial and Federal governments that have no legal jurisdiction to do so. We find ourselves in a state of urgency and crisis. The continuing violations of the rights and responsibilities of Indigenous Peoples by industries not appropriately regulated, regularly causing environmental damage and destruction, and most importantly, that do not have consent by Indigenous Peoples will not be tolerated!”
The event included presentations on resistance to Imperial Metals Mount Polley mine and broader mining justice struggles. The presenters included:
Cecilia Point (Musqueam), Kanahus Manuel (Secwepemc Women's Warrior Society), Grand Chief Stewart Phillip (Union of British Columbia Indian Chiefs), Sacheen and Crow (Ancestral Pride), Sam Nock (Cree-Metis poet), Ricardo Segovia (hydrogeologist), Harjap Grewal (Council of Canadians) and Rita Wong (updates on Site C and Unist'ot'en Camp).

VISUAL LIBRARIES - Leave your Mark.
A collaborative, visual project which encourages you to sign out a Visual Library Book and ‘Leave Your Mark’.
A Visual Library Book is whatever you want it to be, a sketchbook, a journal, a diary, a notepad.
You can ‘Leave Your Mark’ in whatever way you want, ranging from drawing, writing, sewing, adding photographs, markings, printing and sticking. How you make your marks is entirely up to you. All we ask is that you have fun with the different themes.
45 Visual Library Books have been placed in Portsmouth Central Library and each has its own theme ranging from; Portsmouth, My City, When I Open My Eyes, Whilst I Was Waiting, Love, What’s in My Pocket and Memories. The intention is for you to feel free to explore the Visual Library Books and choose a theme that you like.

Here we see the visual catalog's attempt at running the same search (in keeping with the theme of this blog, I typed in "Investigation"). You can JUST see the top edge of the second search result, but basically it's one title per screen. This makes actually finding the thing you want a very slow and difficult process -- worse when a librarian is helping a patron, as the person who knows what he wants is not the one holding the mouse -- especially when attempting comparison. This needs to be fixed, and there are some easy solutions.
