It's #TacoTuesday in the #LawLibrary and my 2nd week taking Basic Spanish for #Librarians.

Por favor, dile "hola" a mi burro piñata, Jorge.

Has anyone closed their #academic or #LawLibrary reference desk for a week+ to do outreach, and ended up receiving more reference appts as a result?

Thought I saw a tweet along these lines recently on #LibraryTwitter and wish I had liked or replied right away.
