First day of work since COVID! Whoooo! #LibraryLife #librarian #TookLongEnough

#Librarian / #Library geeks: i want to listen to an audiobook but i can't find it in Libby (with deep search even), or Hoopla

is there another place i should be looking? I know it's available in Audible (and not an exclusive)...

A MIGHTY question for the book lovers here:

What book do you love with all your being, but hesitate to recommend because you don't want to risk seeing a NOPE "ducks arse" pursed mouth, or getting a "Meh" in response?

I only realized this morning that mine's always been Terry Pratchett's Guards! Guards!

Even though I write in the genre and it's obvious that I've gotta be a fan... there's still something in me that feels like it'll curl up in a corner and hide under a blanket if I hear someone say they hate it.

1. I reached a 600 days streak on #Duolingo.
2. Some ground research I facilitated the #librarian part of 18 years ago, is helping a cancer patient close to me this month. I remember Dr. L. being quite proud to have his scarlet and pink "dots" on the front page of a prestigeous but oh-so-narrow medical journal, and I am so grateful for his hard work.
3. We saw three toads on our small night walk. Also got quite a few of the new #pokemon species. 😁

A blog post I wrote on library publishing just got published by the IFLA Library Publishing Special Interest Group

Would be thrilled if you read and shared

"The Librarian Card Catalogue" campaign is in its final 2 weeks. Here is a closeup view of some of the lickable/stickable multiverse Librarian themed postage stamps that come in the box (91 copies left - https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/52625019/the-librarian-card-catalogue) #sff #librarian #Library

Waverly finding a relatively tender moment with the Librarian at her college. A kindred spirit perhaps? Let's just hope this doesn't lead to a further loss in attendance for Wave 😬

@MostlyHarmless This is exactly what a #Librarian would do.

Librarian superpower: three minutes at work and I've already got a pencil behind each ear.

The fun continues. Another brief power outage. On serious note, thing is, even if brief, it activates the fire door alarms, so someone (me) has to go around with the key, disarm and then rearm the door safeties so the loud beeps stop.

This sounds like a cool job: the CBC is hiring a "media librarian, assigned to music."

Library Stuff!

I took my Information Literacy Session on the road with an Ipad and 100 new students. Gave a walking tour, postcards and we had a great time.

As a #librarian and one of the few people still masking in my library/on campus, I really appreciate this essay: “Dominant COVID Narratives and Implications for Information Literacy in the ‘Post-Pandemic’ United States”

So. No longer a #librarian on the off chance someone's following for that. I'll always be an information scientist, cause I paid out the ass for that degree, but I'm now a #socialist in a department of one (how do I keep my labor organizing going??) doing community outreach and engagement for a big state research university. Anyone else doing #CommunityEngagement work in higher ed?

A Librarian is complete! This is Richard III, an iteration of the original Lionheart cloned by the Selenar. Alas, their methods are clearly flawed and the genetic instability of their work is on full display here ... he is a twisted, mutant creature! But his psychic powers are great and he maintains an obfuscating projection of a noble warrior with his mental-might...

This a #Librarian for my #DarkAngels #SpaceMarines successor Chapter the #WinterLions for #Warhammer40000

What's the best critique of open access that's not conservative or reactionary?

Is there any article or book from the last decade that really stands out?
