  • INFORMATION in PURSUIT of the “GOOD DEATH”: LIBRARIES' ROLE in the DEATH POSITIVITY MOVEMENT (Paper)
    Roger Chabot Western University, London, Ontario, Canada INFORMATION IN PURSUIT OF THE “GOOD DEATH”: LIBRARIES’ ROLE IN THE DEATH POSITIVITY MOVEMENT (Paper) Abstract: The Death Positivity Movement (DPM) is a recent social and activist movement seeking to change the North American “culture of silence” surrounding death and dying. Seeking to engage with the conference theme of “conversations across boundaries,” this presentation presents arguments as to why libraries should be involved in the movement and also outlines more specifically actions that they can take to be involved. In this presentation, a short introduction to the DPM will be provided, followed by a brief discussion of the concept of the “good death”. Arguments will then be made explaining why libraries should be involved in the DPM and then the last section explores more specifically how libraries can be involved through collection development, community assistance and programming. 1. Introduction The Death Positivity Movement (DPM, or sometimes Death Positive Movement) is a recent social and activist movement seeking to change the North American “culture of silence” (Doughty, 2019b) surrounding death and dying. The modern DPM is relatively novel, and until now has been primarily driven through the publishing and sharing of content on social media (Hayasaki, 2013). However, as the movement grows, libraries are well positioned to be involved in the movement through their role as information providers and community builders. In turn, the pursuit of the goals of the DPM fulfills the mission of libraries. In engaging with the CAIS/ACSI 2019 conference theme of “conversations across boundaries,” this presentation explores the current and future relationship between the DPM and libraries to bring awareness to it and to further promote its growth.

    Death Positivity and Death Justice in the Anthropocene by Danika Vilene Jorgensen Skakum A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts In Gender and Social Justice Studies Department of Women's and Gender Studies University of Alberta © Danika Vilene Jorgensen Skakum, 2018 Death Positivity and Death Justice ii Abstract The Death Positivity Movement is a relatively new group of advocates who argue for greater death acceptance in Western society. This thesis explores how the Death Positivity Movement might help humans respond justly to mass death in the Anthropocene, when gross ecological change threatens human extinction and the extinction of other species. Using a number of sociological texts to contextualize the movement’s claims —in turn gathered from a swath of popular news articles and the movement’s online material — this thesis concludes that the Death Positivity Movement might practically apply to death denial in the Anthropocene, described by the author as the refusal to acknowledge those deaths associated with environmental change and reliance on techno-scientific geoengineering solutions. However, this thesis also draws significantly from Donna Haraway’s use of the “compost” to expand the Death Positivity Movement’s understanding of social justice and a “good death for all” for a non-human context as well. Death Positivity and Death Justice iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank a number of people for supporting me in this thesis writing adventure. First, my amazing supervisor Chloë Taylor. I could not have dreamed up a better supervisor if I tried! Thank you for all that you do, and for all of your time and labor.

  • Timely and Helpful Books for Planning and Preparing for Death
    Timely and Helpful Books and other Resources By Rebecca Taylor Please send suggestions for books you’ve read to add to the list to: [email protected] FUNERALS, FUNERALS HOMES, AND FUNERAL PLANNING Smoke Gets in Your Eyes: And Other Lessons from the Crematory by Caitlin Doughty. Norton, hardcover, paperback, audiobook, e-book. Most people want to avoid thinking about death, but Caitlin Doughty―a twenty- something with a degree in medieval history and a flair for the macabre―took a job at a crematory, turning morbid curiosity into her life’s work. Thrown into a profession of gallows humor and vivid characters (both living and very dead), Caitlin learned to navigate the secretive culture of those who care for the deceased. Honest and heartfelt, self- deprecating and ironic, Caitlin's engaging style makes this otherwise taboo topic both approachable and engrossing. Now a licensed mortician with an alternative funeral practice, Caitlin argues that our fear of dying warps our culture and society, and she calls for better ways of dealing with death (and our dead). A Good Goodbye: Funeral Planning for Those Who Don't Plan to Die by Gail Rubin. Light Tree Press, paperback and e-book. Provides the information, inspiration and tools to plan and implement creative, meaningful and memorable end-of-life rituals for people and pets. Just as talking about sex won't make you pregnant, talking about funerals won't make you dead - and your family will benefit from the conversation. Learn how to save money, reduce family conflict, and avoid stress at a time of grief.
