Sorry to read @SolanoLibrary was hit by a ransomware attack similar to those experienced by public #libraries in 3 Ontario cities in the past 7 months. The attacks disrupt essential community services & impact worker health & safety. #library #librarylife tinyurl.com/mr69ha9d
A man trying to enter the Marmora & Lake Public #library before it was open has been charged after biting a police officer who responded to the incident. #libraries #healthandsafety tinyurl.com/49kuzd3u
Researcher spearheading initiative to merge #libraries with AI. Key areas that will be impacted are physical access to #books, information analysis & the #librarian profession. #library tinyurl.com/3sb6j28n
.@PublicSaskatoon is cutting evening hours at 4 branches due to incidents occurring when support services are closed. What measures have been implemented to address the problem during those hours, such as higher staffing levels? #library #Saskatoon #skpoli tinyurl.com/4cph98f9
The #library Workers Empowerment Act grants library workers across Maryland the right to form unions & collectively bargain for the wages, benefits & working conditions they deserve! #Solidarity @BCPL_United #libraries
The #library Workers Empowerment Act grants library workers across Maryland the right to form unions & collectively bargain for the wages, benefits & working conditions they deserve! #Solidarity @BCPL_United #libraries
#school #libraries & the #library workers that run them are essential to the public #education system & student #literacy & learning outcomes. Every school should have a library & every school library should be staffed by a library worker. #libraries tinyurl.com/3bnzpsej
#libraries, including those at post-secondary institutions, have always adapted to change. What they need are bigger #library budgets to increase staffing levels & to cover the rising cost of digital materials. #librarian #librarylife #college tinyurl.com/4vdhwxj9
2 teenaged girls were charged after they assaulted a #saskatoon #library worker & security guard. @CUPEsask has called for more staff training, permanent bans for violent offenders, higher staffing levels & an end to working alone. #libraries #skpoli tinyurl.com/razfrnat
The top-down approach to developing the toolkit effectively excludes frontline #library workers from contributing to its development by discounting their experiences in dealing with incidents involving workplace violence & harassment. #libraries tinyurl.com/4fk4uvz2
If passed, #MichiganState bills would put a #library in almost every public school along with certified #librarians! The legislation is a response to the state's literacy crisis & comes at a time when #school #libraries are under attack across the U.S. tinyurl.com/37svcn92
To celebrate National #Librarian Day in the U.S. @ALALibrary president @edrabinski writes that #library workers are vital to our communities & "active defenders of our democracy." #libraries #librarylife👏💯 tinyurl.com/2s99zes7
.@BWGLibrary, CONTACT Community Services & @gilbertcentre piloting gender-affirming clothing pop-ups & an on-site alcove until June. #libraries are committed to providing safe & inclusive spaces for everyone. Items can be donated to Clothes Line Bradford. tinyurl.com/4u6nk8p6
We need to address #healthandsafety in public #libraries, but - as the @ptbolibrary CEO says - the recommendation to ban people from loitering at the #library makes her laugh since it's the very thing that #libraries encourage. #ptbo tinyurl.com/yc3dc4np
3 security guards were stabbed at the downtown branch of @EPLdotCA in March. Security guards need to receive training in de-escalation techniques & in working with vulnerable folks to promote & protect everyone's #healthandsafety in the #library. tinyurl.com/bschj5f5
#library workers at Smith #college who recently joined @OPEIU are part of the growth in unionization among workers in western Massachusetts. They know it's "the voices of workers [that] matter in determining the conditions of their labor." #libraries tinyurl.com/yc2t88he
#school #library workers are essential to improving student #literacy. There should be a library in every school & a library worker in every school library. Kids deserve it! #libraries tinyurl.com/bdhaxp2f
The @NYFriendshipC has opened an all-Indigenous #library - the only friendship centre in Canada to have one! The library features books from #Indigenous authors, storytellers, knowledge keepers & residential school survivors. #libraries #Saskatchewan tinyurl.com/yk2vnmmc
Happy that public #libraries in #Saskatchewan are filling the gap created by the provincial government's decision to bar 3rd party orgs from presenting sexual education in #Schools, but concerned that far fewer children will receive critical information. tinyurl.com/5y2a7hk9
The introduction of Sunday hours at some branches of the Windsor Public #library could result in the loss of hours at other branches & significant disruptions to staff jobs. #Windsor #libraries tinyurl.com/238hacd2
A drag story time event was cancelled at the @LancasterPubLib after a suspicious package was found in the #library & other threats were issued. tinyurl.com/4hmnyep5 #libraries

The Maryland Senate steps up with the Library Workers Empowerment Act, fostering a brighter future for unorganized public library employees to unionize and engage in collective bargaining. 🙌 #mdleg #mdpolitics goiam.org/press-releases…
On the topic of gender-affirming care bans for minors: MAYBE, just MAYBE, conservatives who care about small government, personal freedoms, parent involvement etc, should be concerned about governments putting themselves between families and the healthcare their kids need.
Since 2010 thousands of Library Workers have lost their jobs. Jobs that paid rent & bills. Jobs that bought food. Jobs that required training & dedication. The jobs of people who are part of the community. Library Workers make Libraries. #protectlibraryworkers #savelibraries
"Ohio’s taxpayers and library patrons expect to see library funds used to provide information, resources, and public services to our communities rather than on union-busting." @OFTunion #NationalLibraryWeek aftvoices.org/union-busting-…
As a way to "address" violence and mental health issues in schools, the gov has allocated $30 million for surveillance cameras. Apparently, our schools are supposed to watch on video as students, teachers, and ed workers get attacked without being able to do anything about it.
Spider in the Well by @jesshgn weaves a spectacularly sly story about a newsboy, a spider, secrets in a wishing well, piles of gold coins, and a web of fibs. This divine debut makes a big splash. #picturebookoftheday @HarperCollinsCa 🕷️📚❤️
My last speech fr @CILIPinfo #LBF24 ends w this: "Libraries exist not only to defend intellectual freedom - the core of any functioning democracy - but also to empower the people w the critical literacy to exercise their liberty. To defend libraries is to defend democracy itself"
All y’all being like “don’t compare Poilievre to Trump 🥺” or “no he isn’t bringing in a far right playbook 🥺” Are just showing you don’t care enough or pay enough attention to trans issues, because conservatives in 🇨🇦 are 1000% working from a republican anti-trans playbook.
Library cuts & closures means redundancies. Saving Libraries means fighting for Library Workers. Libraries need Library Workers. It’s not complicated 🤷♀️ #savelibraries #protectlibraryworkers
I am proud of who I am and what I believe. I am proud of the work all of us are doing at @ALALibrary to strengthen American libraries. Ours are crucial and beloved community institutions that must be protected and expanded. That is the real story here.

Seeing lots of #savelibraries campaigns and petitions that don’t mention saving Library Workers jobs, you can’t have one without the other I’m afraid 🤷♀️
Book-ban attempts are rising in Canada. But so are the number of librarians and authors willing to fight them cbc.ca/news/canada/fr… When book challenges arise, Canadians typically 'stand with authors. They stand with a child's right to read' #FTRweek
Endangered books welcome: Enter into Ottawa Public Library's 'book sanctuary' ottawacitizen.com/news/endangere… "It’s a commitment from the library to really make sure these books, this content, these perspectives are available to everybody." #FTRweek
How I got so lucky as to hang with @IamGMJohnson last night I will never know. One of the sharpest analyses of the current crisis that I’ve heard, and I listen to them every day. I believe that we will win and George’s work has a lot to do with that. Gratitude!
Public Libraries are being used to mask & hide cuts to other public services. Re-inventing libraries as community hubs, service centres and social prescribers is harmful to Library Workers and the communities they serve. #libraries
