@bookmarkandburn.bsky.socialSome of literature's most interesting conversations begin with a challenged book. 📚 Which banned book would you recommend to every curious reader, and why? Let's talk stories, libraries, and the freedom to read.

@whatisthisann.bsky.socialone of my favorite times of the year, no less. Two years ago I was doing daily art challenges and that just wasn’t sustainable, so now I’m just….doing what I can and sometimes it’s not very much.

@anniethebook.bsky.socialToday at the research help desk: break hours, primary sources for 20th c. immigration (Braceros Program, Chinese Exclusion Act, Immigration Act of 1924), thank goodness that journal is open access, Encyclopedia Britannica, printing and Writing Center directions, envelope delivery.
@anniethebook.bsky.socialWhew! It was busy at the research help desk. At one point, I was wrapping up an in-person question when chat dinged & the phone rang. Then I got another chat while I was still on the phone & answering the other chat. Had to rope in a colleague to help with the rush!

@ydnam.bsky.socialSomeone at IT accidentally pushed through an autolaunch change to the student Google user group so that was MY lunch break ruined when hordes of students showed up with chromebooks that only showed a calendar...

@anniethebook.bsky.socialJust finished pulling a cart of books for tomorrow's research workshop (medieval literature, one of my favorite classes to work with): women ascetics and mysticism, all the monster theory I can get my hands on, sexuality & gender roles, Arthuriana, multimodality & transmission, & more.
@anniethebook.bsky.socialToday at the research help desk: there is no ebook version, L. Ron Hubbard, tracking down full text, identifying a plant pathogen and a new vocab word for me (hemiparasitic), pencils, and printing.

@murielsdivorce.bsky.socialKhalil's account of his time in ICE detention is a testament to his writing, perseverance, and the team of support that many do not have. Highly recommend to learn more about the realities of ICE and also the further challenges faced by the Palestinian diaspora 📚💙💡 #LibraryLife #Books

@cflfanuk.bsky.socialMonday morning #library engagement time!
Last week we asked if toilet paper should be hung over or under, and had the biggest landslide we've ever seen - for over.
Check out today's question on the board.
@stpnlibrarian.bsky.socialGuten Morgen. Los geht’s in eine neue Woche #LibraryLife. 📚🥰
@libaimee.bsky.socialI never would have thought how popular it is to come print out coloring pages at the library. I don't see it every single day, but definitely multiple times a week. Or, patrons, all ages, will come to the front desk and ask for one of the coloring pages we keep on hand. #LibraryLife
