A8: I read a lot of middle grade and young adult books so that I can best recommend titles to students, as well as work on my campus’s collection development. It’s important to find a balance between what you love to read and also reading for our patrons. I love both! #TLSkyChat

A7: 📚Summer reading shouldn’t just fight the “summer slide”—it should build student agency, identity, and curiosity. 💡 Let kids choose what to read. 🪞Give them mirrors + windows in stories. 🌱 Spark curiosity with themed adventures. 🌟 When reading is joyful, it becomes transformational. #TLSkyChat
