In case you didn't know, librarians are educated professionals with a master's degree and don't just willy nilly buy any old books for their libraries.

In a world of confusion, Bluesky is a point of calm. This cephalophore (and Newton the cat) advise you not to lose your head. I’m glad to see all the new, and many familiar faces from the bird app. #library #edtech #edusky #kidlit #schoollibrary 👋

I've added many more K-12 educators & librarians to my Starter Pack! Still room for more; I forgot that Bluesky increased the number of users we could add to Starter Packs (max 150 instead of 50)! Thanks for the shoutout, @doucette515.bsky.social. 😍🍎 #Edusky #SchoolLibrarian #Skybrarian

My tow truck driver and I had a nice conversation about books and what they mean to kids. He loved FREAK THE MIGHTY and THE GIVER. When I explained that I didn’t ever want to prevent kids from reading books, even ones I didn’t agree with, he thought that was a nice idea. #schoollibrarians #libraries

As a gay kid growing up under Section 28, I didn’t think I’d survive secondary school let alone be a dad, be married, and have my 7th book just published! A message to all the queer youth out there: never give up. You are worthy, brilliant, strong and brave. #PrimaryEduSky #KidLit #EduSky

Making books for children is a radical action, because becoming literate is a radical action, because self identifying as a reader is a radical action, because reading with the explicit goal of gaining self knowledge is a radical action. These are revolutionary actions because they change the world.
