This is *my* library
“Timberland Regional Library promotes and defends the principle of intellectual freedom based on the First Amendment of the Constitution,” she said. “And as your library administration, we do not condone the prejudicial labeling of the collection. We believe that the ability to freely chose what to read is a cornerstone of Democracy and a free society.”

Does #librarydon have a book club yet? Either way, I propose reading Snow Crash in March, a book I've always wanted to read and that I know people tend to have Opinions on.

I just took a #library #book and tried to scan the barcode under the pump on my hand sanitizer....
If you are wondering how my #wednesday is going 🙃🤦♀️😄

Getting ready to livestream a team from a local primary school. They are competing in #SmartParatSvar a national quiz, and the #library is supporting them.
Soon we're ready for the soundest.... Fingers crossed that my setup works with the stream!!

Today's loot! Four books in three languages. They all look fascinating, I can't wait to read them. I live in a small town so I am forced to order online if I want a foreign book and it is hard to find something in Spanish for instance. I look forward to read them all #mastobook #books #english #spanish #libros #español #french #français #dutch #nederland #reading #language #languagelearning #supportlocalbusiness #library #librarydon

Picked up my #library holds today and started Body Work: The Radical Power of Personal Narrative by Melissa Febos which I fell right into reading. I have already found some good quotes and I am not even a third of the way through.

Why the fuck are you here? Go home and stay there until you are better. You're not even covering your mouth when you cough.

*Grumbles*
I hate working Sundays. The actual working isn't bad, but the losing one of my days off suuuuucks.
Our library is open every Sunday, but they aren't regular hours. To prevent them from becoming regular, the union does the schedule. So the upside is we get time and a half and are only open 4 hours. The downside is days off aren't worked around.
Poo.

🚨📣 PSA: I don't know who needs to "hear" this but if you have a library card in the U.S., you potentially have access to TONS of #free #movies including a LOT of amazing #horror if you download the Kanopy app.🤘🏼

For someone that talks a lot about #accesibility , it's just this week that I managed to figure out how to put subtitles on a live, in-person talk.
I just wanted to say this, to help show others it is a learning journey. It's also worth noting the language of the subtitles can be changed to suit the crowd you are speaking to 😊

Aberdeen's University Librarian @simonjbains announced our new rights retention policy today!
Seems niche, but is super important for fighting the supervillains in for-profit publishing.
Uni staff can no longer be made to sign over copyright to publish. All work will be made freely available to all in the university repository.
We have an amazing Open Research Team at the library 📚 🦸♀️ 🏆. Thank you!
Full details:
