"I think the solace that I take is that if what we did was irrelevant, the book banners would leave us be. They obviously believe we have the power to support people reading and thinking freely..." @GeometricRabbit publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/in…
Honest talk on "school choice". 🧵 We have a son who is having a hard time in public school as resources are stretched thin. So we applied him for private school hoping the smaller class size would help with teachers that are not always feeling like their job is under fire.
“So if children are given opportunities to read many different things they’re going to develop discernment. They don’t have to believe every single thing they read, but they need different points of view.” wcjb.com/2024/04/21/ban…
Library books are used and returned for the next reader, making them a sustainable resource for environmentally conscious bibliophiles. #lovetheplanet #greenliving #earthconscious #earthdayeveryday ow.ly/KqfG50Rk4iY
Greater Idaho proponents are protesting that the Oregon Legislature doesn’t listen to them, but why would they think the Idaho Legislature will be any different? They ignored comments and voted in the library bill against the will of the people. idahocapitalsun.com/2024/04/18/the… #idpol
Tiny children getting their first library card is the thing that gets me through the day a lot- like a well mannered three year old matter of factly telling you her birthday and accepting a sticker is a real shot in the arm after someone yells at you about the printer.
Don’t worry if your little one can’t sit still; library story hours are great for all kids! action.everylibrary.org/library_storyt…
The thing that we have to realize is that a lot of these anti-public school politicians and interest groups have a vested interest in promoting conspiracies and downright lies in order to undermine the public education system and cast doubt on the value of public education. 2/
I've worked for @dcpl for 8 years and 6 months. When people ask me why I work for public libraries and don't work for the Library of Congress or wherever, I tell them this story. I still talk to this guy from time to time. He spent most of his life in jail.
If you can, I recommend updating your reconsideration policy to restrict challenge submissions to only people in your school community, limit the number of challenges they can submit each year to a few, and limit how many times a title can be challenged to once every few years.

The real divide is between residents who believe the public library should adhere to their personal religious convictions and those who argue that it should instead reflect a wide range of ideas and identities. #UniteAgainstBookBans

Master and Commander Level: Turn everything into a literary reference
“I need to print something from my phone.” “There are a couple ways we can try to do that.” “I’d like to pick the way that will take the most time, with the most opportunities for user error and the lowest probability of customer satisfaction.” “That is the most popular option.”
At least 23 of the 87 books Davis School District has removed or restricted address sexual assault (and that's likely an undercount). By banning books that compassionately address this topic, Utah's sensitive materials law is frankly another form of violence against survivors.

Last night, the Millburn School District 24 in suburban Chicago voted to *UNBAN* the Rebecca Caudill Awards program in the schools. This came following tremendous pushback and on-the-ground efforts locally and nationally: bookriot.com/the-rebecca-ca…

You'll get 99% of librarians to agree about the importance of banned books, but the real division is the librarians that think of Harry Potter or Catcher in the Rye as "banned books" vs librarians who think of representation for our most vulnerable community members.
Im not good at responding to people’s praise of what I photograph. Last night on a bike ride, I thought about where I am at and I just wanna say thank you. I hope to continue this and keep growing as a creative.
The library welcomes you to leave your child with us, unsupervised. Come children, we dance and play among the stacks and teach the old about the internet. Come children, we hide and seek and pull ancient texts for the lovers of "Mary Higgins Clark" Come children, be a librarian
Children under 10 must be accompanied by an adult in the library. Please be advised that this is a serious policy that we won’t enforce in any effective way.
You can always find someone who thinks negatively about the things that make you happy. You can ignore them. Even better, you can become a person that celebrates things that make other people happy even if it doesn't have the same effect on you. Like bird watching for joy.
Thanks to the dream of a dedicated librarian, a Chicago jail has gained a welcoming storytime space for its youngest visitors. #ICYMI #literacy #earlyliteracy #childrensbooks #librarians #libraries @laundrycares ow.ly/NhVe50Rk3Zs
Can confirm.
In case you’re wondering- the 2 speakers who read out of context passages from library books, out loud during last night’s @katyisd meeting- are activists traveling around the state trying to shock & intimidate school boards into banning books without following board policies.
