The fog month is a time in-between. The warm and cozy days of autumn have passed and the bliss of Christmas has not yet arrived. Cold is creeping in and a careful eye might see something dark going on in the shadows. November is a time where mystery stories are born and raised, where the first snow sets in and a fire in the chimney is a symbol of hope. It is a time of rest and remembering, of being thankful for what came before us and what comes after. November Negligence captures all these feelings and puts them into short poems. Dwell along in the lines of fog and forgetfulness. And do not forget to bring a blanket and a nice cup of tea. November Negligence is the first installment of the 12-part book series "The Chronicles of Yesteryear". Every month of the year has its very own rhythm, its holidays, its own magic. The Chronicles of Yesteryear are a year-round poetry series to cherish and celebrate every month as it passes.
Fake News in Context defines fake news and sets it within a historical and international context. Helping readers to become more skilled at detecting misinformation, the book also demonstrates how such knowledge can be leveraged to facilitate more effective engagement in civic education. Distinguishing between fake news and other forms of misinformation, the book explains the complete communication cycle of fake news: how and why it is created, disseminated and accessed. The book then explains the physical and psychological reasons why people believe fake news. Providing generic methods for identifying fake news, Farmer also explains the use of fact- checking tools and automated algorithms. The book then details how various literacies, including news, media, visual, information, digital and data, offer unique concepts and skills that can help interpret fake news. Arguing that individuals and groups can respond and counter fake news, which leads to civic engagement and digital citizenship, the book concludes by providing strategies for instruction and tips for collaborating with librarians. Including a range of international examples, Fake News in Context will be of interest to teaching faculty, and students of library and information science, communication studies, media studies, politics and journalism. Librarians and information professionals will also find a valuable resource in this book.
