Finally got to update my profile to add that I'm a 2025 Eisner Judge. Glad to stop keeping that a secret! And now, off this app and back to nonstop reading all the comics & graphic novels. www.comic-con.org/awards/eisne...

Had a great experience rolling in Chewbacchus last night! The crowds were so fun and hyped to see us! I saw lots of library cards and apps on phones and multiple times people started chants "LIB-RAR-Y! LIB-RAR-Y!" 📚 #skybrarians #chewbacchus2025

Prepping for Chewbacchus!

@amlibraryassoc.bsky.social are the slides from this year's #ALAYMA going to be available anywhere? The livestream didn't stay up on the award committees names for very long, so I missed seeing some friends' names.

There was a good showing of graphic novels recognized at #ALAYMA this year, did any #libcomix people compile a list as the announcements were going out? @libcomix.bsky.social

Congratulations @jgv.bsky.social I'm so excited that you won the Stonewall this year! #ALAYMA

Getting ready to watch the livestream of the #ALAYMA announcements and reminiscing being there live the last 2 years. I miss my committee friends! Hope y'all are having a great day!

📚The #KidLit event of the year is almost here! Join us for the live announcement of the 2025 ALA Youth Media Awards! 📅 Mon., Jan. 27 🕖 7am PT | 8am MT | 9am CT | 10:00am ET Watch at ala.unikron.com or on the ALA Facebook page. www.facebook.com/AmericanLibr...

Another food post! Tonight for dinner, I made King Arthur Baking Company’s 2024 recipe of the year: www.kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/big-... (photos of my bread in the thread) #baking

Got my black eyed peas cooking on the stove for dinner tonight, had some cabbage salad at lunch. It’s already an awful start to the new year, so I’m taking comfort in tradition.

Yay! Just unpacked and assembled the new World Book encyclopedia! Love this day. My boss came over to help because he was excited to see the design. And it’s a great one! 📚 #skybrarians

Math rules.

I may have found a fraudulent library account. Or maybe Luffy is living in New Orleans now. We do have a history of pirates. #skybrarians 📚

I implore libraries to simply refuse to purchase anything from this "publisher."

Another #skybrarian 📚 notice! All ALA members are eligible. I applied and didn’t get my project chosen in 2019, but it was a great experience working with a colleague to fill out the application and we probably would have implemented our program anyway if 2020 hadn’t been what it was.

I’ve been working on and off on a spreadsheet of the 650+ YA manga series in my library system (spread across 15 branches). I’m making note of number of volumes we have, if the series is complete, and if there’s an anime adaptation. I’ve made entries for 180 so far. Maybe I can finish before 2025🤞
