[1] If you dig deeper, then you might want to save yourself some time by reading a shorter item. On the other hand, if your desire is for more detail, then you might consider reading a longer item. The following illustrate the overall size of your study carrel.

Using the three most frequent words, the three files containing all of those words the most are Creating a Library Wide Culture and Environment to Support MLIS Students of Color: The Diversity Scholars Program at Oregon State University Libraries – In the Library with the Lead Pipe, Creating a Library Wide Culture and Environment to Support MLIS Students of Color: The Diversity Scholars Program at Oregon State University Libraries – In the Library with the Lead Pipe, and Training Matters: Student Employment and Learning in Academic Libraries – In the Library with the Lead Pipe.

While often deemed superficial or sophomoric, rudimentary frequencies and their associated "word clouds" can be quite insightful:

Keywords

library, student, pipe, university, libraries, lead, worker, work, wordpress, wiley, ual, training, syndrome, study, spectrum, solis, scholars, research, program, political, oer, mlis, marx, march, librarian, learning, language, information, imposter, imes, ideology, guide, freedom, faculty, experience, english, employee, elsevier, education, dsp, diversity, disorders, developmental, community, commons, clance, capitalism, brief, bollier, autism

And now word clouds really begin to shine:

Topic Modeling

If your study carrel could be summed up in a single word, then that word might be library, and It’s Not Imposter Syndrome: Resisting Self-Doubt as Normal For Library Workers – In the Library with the Lead Pipe is most about that word.

If your study carrel could be summed up in three words ("topics") then those words and their significantly associated titles include:

1. library - Training Matters: Student Employment and Learning in Academic Libraries – In the Library with the Lead Pipe
2. information - “Information Has Value”: The Political Economy of Information Capitalism – In the Library with the Lead Pipe
3. program - Creating a Library Wide Culture and Environment to Support MLIS Students of Color: The Diversity Scholars Program at Oregon State University Libraries – In the Library with the Lead Pipe

If your study carrel could be summed up in five topics, and each topic were each denoted with three words, then those topics and their most significantly associated files would be:

1. academic, librarians, library - Power and Status (and Lack Thereof) in Academe: Academic Freedom and Academic Librarians – In the Library with the Lead Pipe
2. student, learning, training - Training Matters: Student Employment and Learning in Academic Libraries – In the Library with the Lead Pipe
3. information, lead, pipe - “Information Has Value”: The Political Economy of Information Capitalism – In the Library with the Lead Pipe
4. language, oer, languages - Open to What? A Critical Evaluation of OER Efficacy Studies – In the Library with the Lead Pipe
5. program, library, scholars - Creating a Library Wide Culture and Environment to Support MLIS Students of Color: The Diversity Scholars Program at Oregon State University Libraries – In the Library with the Lead Pipe
