SUMMARY:POSTPONED: Breslauer Lecture: Indigenous Knowledge and the Limits of Translation: Mexican Manuscripts in Early Modern Collections
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  \n\n\n\nThis talk discusses the circulation and reception of Indigenous manuscripts in Mexico and Europe from the sixteenth to the eighteenth centuries. Indigenous authors in pre-contact and early colonial Mexico created pictorial manuscripts that record Native knowledge in image and word. Collectively\, these documents constitute an incomparable Indigenous archive. They entered private and institutional collections on both sides of the Atlantic\, provoking a great deal of interest. However\, their reception in early modern Europe almost without exception reached interpretive dead ends. Poised at the intersection of Indigenous studies\, the history of books and libraries\, and the history of knowledge production\, this talk discusses the trajectories of several Mexican manuscripts to address questions of materiality\, mobility\, and the possibilities and limits of translation and interpretation. It follows Indigenous manuscripts in movement and stasis\, as knowledge inscriptions and as potential sources for knowledge production\, to consider the flow and friction of Mesoamerican Indigenous objects and practices in the early modern world. \n\n\n\nSpeaker: Daniela Bleichmar \n\n\n\nProfessor of Art History and History; Founding Director\, Levan Institute for the Humanities; Director\, USC Society of Fellows in the Humanities; University of Southern California \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nSpeaker Bio: \n\n\n\nDaniela Bleichmar is Professor of Art History and History at the University of Southern California. Her research and teaching address the history of images\, objects\, and texts in colonial Latin America and early modern Europe\, focusing on the histories of visual and material culture; science and knowledge production; circulation\, encounters\, and exchanges; collections; and books. Her publications include the books Visible Empire: Botanical Expeditions and Visual Culture in the Hispanic Enlightenment (2012) and Visual Voyages: Images of Latin American Nature from Columbus to Darwin (2017).

SUMMARY:Information Studies Colloquium: The Weight of Small Things: Everyday Archiving and the Making of Belonging in Chinese American Families with Jiarui Sun
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \n\n\n\nThis talk explores the everyday archiving practices of Chinese American families\, with particular attention to their transnational and intergenerational dimensions. Drawing on interviews\, ethnographic observations\, and personal narratives\, it examines how family members across different generations and geographies engage with documents\, photographs\, digital records\, and heirlooms—not only as sources of information\, but also as emotionally charged objects that carry meaning\, memory\, and identity. The analysis focuses on how these materials are preserved\, interpreted\, and at times contested across borders and generations\, situating such practices within complex negotiations of belonging\, displacement\, and cultural continuity. Family archives are framed as sites of emotional labor and diasporic care\, highlighting their affective\, relational\, and infrastructural dimensions. Rather than being solely about safeguarding the past\, the talk positions family archiving as a practice through which diasporic futures are imagined\, constructed\, and sustained. \n\n\n\nBio: \n\n\n\nJiarui Sun is a Ph.D. candidate in Information Studies and a graduate student researcher at the Asia Pacific Center at UCLA. His research interests include archives and migration\, personal archiving\, and digital recordkeeping. His work has been published in both English- and Chinese-language journals\, including Archival Science\, and has received support from the Society of American Archivists\, the Society of California Archivists\, the Beta Phi Mu International Honor Society for Library and Information Science\, and the UCLA Asian American Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Information Studies Colloquium: The Landscape of Data Reuse in Information Retrieval: Motivations\, Sources\, and Evaluation of Reusability with Tianji Jiang
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  \n\n\n\nSharing and reusing research data can effectively reduce redundant efforts in data collection and curation\, especially for small labs and research teams conducting human centered system research\, and improve the replicability of evaluation experiments. Building a sustainable data reuse process and culture relies on frameworks that encompass policies\, standards\, roles\, and responsibilities\, all of which must address the diverse needs of data providers\, curators\, and reusers. \n\n\n\nPrevious studies have found that people’s data sharing and reuse practices differ by the research fields they are in\, making it challenging to construct infrastructures that effectively support data sharing in interdisciplinary research communities. As part of his dissertation study\, Tianji investigated the data reuse practices of experienced researchers in the field of Information Retrieval (IR)\, a typically interdisciplinary area where data sharing and reuse are common. This talk will present his preliminary findings from an interview study with 21 researchers from diverse demographic backgrounds\, institutions\, and career stages\, focusing on their motivations\, experiences\, and concerns regarding data reuse. \n\n\n\nBio: \n\n\n\nTianji Jiang is a doctorate candidate in Information Studies at UCLA\, advised by Professor Anne Gilliland. Before joining UCLA\, he graduated with his B.M. in Information Management and Information System from Peking University\, China in 2019. \n\n\n\nTianji’s research interests focus on research data management\, data sharing and reuse\, sociometric\, academic library services\, and digital humanities. He is particularly interested in building community capacity and knowledge infrastructure for data curation\, sharing\, and reuse through better understanding of people’s data behaviors. Currently he is working on his dissertation “Understanding data reuse practices of IR researchers”. He is also conducting several projects focused on developing tools and methods to identify various data behaviors (e.g.\, data sharing and data reuse) through bibliographic records. \n\n\n\nTianji Jiang is also working as a research and instruction technology consultant for UCLA Humanities Technology to provide technology support to research and instruction in the division of Humanities.
