The weekly Substack is up! I'd like to make sure @k8applebee.bsky.social knows she inspired some great new additions into our library that I mention! Excited for things to come! #librarian #library #books #tlsky #skybrarian #skybrarians #librarians

Great workshop by @k8applebee.bsky.social at @4csla.bsky.social on board games in your library! Great start to conference!

I genuinely love my in-laws. They are some of the best people and I would gladly hang out with them without my spouse. But my mil is entering end-of-life care in the hospital and we said what might have been our goodbyes last night. And it is so hard.

I know I am late to the game, but oh boy, school board meetings be wild! After tonight, I feel compelled to attend/watch every meeting and then email the entire board after they adjourn! But I am so thankful for community organizing groups that encourage involvement in local government.

Meet two of the four cats of the apocalypse named after two of our favorite goddesses - Morrigan and Ishtar. Ishtar is the new addition and of course Morrigan wishes death upon her.

When you get to the airport with @meepleslibrarian.bsky.social and she discovers that her flight has been changed and now she’s on your flight.

I know we all think “I’m really loud anyways, so I don’t need a mic” (especially if we work in schools) and you might be loud, but using a mic is a must for accessibility. So, do us all a favor, use the mic and stop saying “I’m a loud person” as a way to opt out of using the mic.

I am so glad that someone jotted down this beautiful quote. New goal for the library: do the daily work to create space and opportunities for anyone who enters to spread their wings.

There seem to be a number of Americans who don’t know what to do if they find a book they don’t like at the library. For them, we wrote this handy step-by-step guide. action.everylibrary.org/what_do_i_do...
