Carla Hayden is an inspiration. As the Librarian of Congress, she devoted herself to making it truly the people’s library- a representative and safe space for all Americans. Her choices for literature ambassadors, her programs, her social media and public interactions were all library joy.

It’s national library week!! Follow me all week for reasons to love your library!! I hope you’ll join me in sharing too. Post with the tags #forourlibraries and #nationallibraryweek @amlibraryassoc.bsky.social is a good place to start for resources on how to support your library today!

Only haiku time from @lizgardensalad.bsky.social will bring me out of a posting hiatus. Thank you for still doing this (on every platform), Liz. You are aloe.

Happy #MatchDay to those opening envelopes today. But to them, and anyone who didn’t match this year- an email does not define you. A location doesn’t define you. You can still be the doctor to want to be, where you want to be. You were strong enough to get this far and that doesn’t change ❤️

You know where you can go and not worry about breaking the economic blackout today? Your local library! All those books and you won’t spend a penny!

Sometimes self care is polishing your nails or curling up with a good book. Sometimes self care is a mammogram. Today, I’m doing all three. If you are due for your routine health screening, schedule it today!

BIG NEWS!!! I got a grant for MG & YA books to stock in my office!! My site is a Reach Out and Read office, so books for kids under 5 are covered, but I hate that we motivate kids to read and then stop building on that momentum as they become independent readers.

If you have a huge TBR pile from library book displays and online posts celebrating Black history month and feel like February is too short to read them all, I have great news!! You can read books by Black authors and illustrators ALL YEAR LONG!!!
