📖 📚 📖
If anyone is unable to get a copy of a book that has been banned by their local/school library, I personally volunteer to help find you an electronic copy.
📚 📖 📚

No one should be restricted from reading something because it acknowledges a person's experience or existence— whether because of race, gender, sexuality, or whatever. My ask is that you keep any copies I give you to help distribute to others.

@ me directly if you need help finding anything.

In the mean time, consider archiving and reading these books, and books like them: ala.org/advocacy/bbooks/freque

...and donating to The Merritt Fund to help librarians whose jobs and funding are threatened: ala.org/aboutala/affiliates/re

Students that don’t have any overdue books and check out new books earn a sticker for our “mystery picture” mosaic. We are so close to finishing! I still laugh every day about their guesses. Just yesterday I heard “dragon”, “lizard”, and “I don’t know but it’s NOT a tiger”.

Happy , everybody!

I wish you all a day with lots of pi(e) and beautiful maths.

Pic 1: The apple pi(e) is for a meeting later today (filled with people of a more Alfa Science persuasion).

Last three pictures are the decorations I made for the I volunteer at.

I just finished reading because I had a parent & a teacher tell me to remove it from the because of inappropriate topics & language. Well, this book is an excellent true telling of a incident & takes an intelligent look at both & the . There is nothing at all wrong with having this in middle schools & high schools, & anyone attacking it & wanting it banned is either homophobic, racist, or hasn’t even read it.

We are moving the into a portable for the next few years so that they can build a new building and then renovate the space that the library will move back into.

The last time I helped to move a library it was a lot different. Plans, strategy and outside people packing and unpacking boxes. This time we have to manage it in our own team.
