Episode Synopsis


This bonus content is a reading from Platypus, the CASTAC Blog. The full post by Katie Ulrich can be read at https://blog.castac.org/2025/06/the-sugar-library/. About the post: The making of the online sugar library has unfolded amid growing discussions around Open Science, increasing concerns about AI training on stolen materials accessed online, and in the context of anthropology’s fraught history obtaining and distributing others’ knowledge without their permission. Which is to say, it was never a given how and why to share the sugar library as an accessible online repository.
