Abstract
We propose digital storytelling as a pedagogical tool for online Library and Information Science education that recognizes diversity and fosters reflection among students and teacher. In a course titled Documenting Diverse Cultures and Communities, students contemplated their role as future information professionals and produced a short digital story dealing with community, archives, and history. We use a call-and-response dialogue on storytelling to discuss how we access personal and social historical memory.
