Guess who finally hit “record” again? That’s right—Librarians with Lattes is back after a totally intentional year-long break (oops). Host Amanda Lowe returns, dusts off the mic, and sits down with returning favorite Melody Palmer and first-time guest Melissa McMullen, UAlbany’s Research Archivist. Recorded back in March 2025 (we swear we meant to publish it sooner), this episode dives into Melissa’s winding path to the archives, thoughts on AI, and all the delightful tangents in between. It’s caffeinated chaos in the best way—join us!
