So true! And a good way of keeping relationships strong too!

So true, librarian-ing is more physical than ppl think, good shows are important!

I like this!

My first tip to come to mind is the very practical: “always spend your entire budget, and ask for more (if needed)”

School librarians, what is a tip you’d offer to MSLIS graduate students new to the profession? I’m going to share a “pro tip” in each weekly announcement for my grad class, would love to crowdsource some tips! It can be anything, broad or specific, practical or philosophical! 🙏 ❤️

Me too lol. I knew I wouldn’t sleep anyway since I’d be worrying so figured might as well go to the vet 😂

Yep she really is 😂😂

4.5 hours at the emergency vet in the middle night just to find out my cat just has a little fecking anxiety Oh& I have to be at work in 4 hours lol Good thing she’s cute

😂 hello!

Just discovered there’s one season from 2023 of a show called “Shelved”. Abbott Elementary style sitcom, takes place in a public library And the opening line is “unfortunately renovations have been pushed back again” & I have never felt more seen as a librarian 😂😂😂

The unmitigated gall of this company to market themselves specifically as a replacement to trained librarians and to exhibit AT THE BIGGEST conference for trained librarians…. It’s really something Like you’re really going to market to US about how replaceable you find us. Interesting strategy

Yuuuuuuuup

I won’t be at ALA this year but I kind of hope everyone who will be there makes Librar know they are marketing themselves at a conference that’s supposed to be for the very professionals they denigrate The Audacity

A7 I feel an ideal, but realistic one (ie schools should be able to meet) is: Annual book budget of $20-$30/student or $5000, whichever is more Database/tech budget of $10/student Also a budget for supplies & programming ($3-$10/student) & furniture budget at least every 10 yrs #tlskychat

Same. Kids often come to the library & find me standing in the middle, hands on hips, just staring at the shelves and they’re like “um..are you ok” and I’m like “yep, just pondering” 😂 I need that marinating time to work through options, ideas, & scenarios but I’m sure it looks unproductive lol

So exciting! I wonder if it will be animated or live action? Animated would be awesome but probably live action

Oh absolutely, when recycling is available that should definitely be used instead!

Mass produced books are consumables that cannot be stored indefinitely & do all need eventual disposal So, the famed “school/library’s dumpster full of books” photos that go viral every year are actually very normal, ok, & expected

😂😂mine is The butcher’s Masquerade 😂😂
