Just watched #KPopDemonHunter Loved it! Students have the best recommendations!

Got my Covid & Flu shot today! 💉💪 #trustscience #trustdoctors

A8 #TLSkyChat the Warrior Cats new graphic novels are a big hit & the student are always checking to see if we have the latest one.

A7 #TLSkyChat I keep my lessons on one set of Google slides, I keep my monthly display stuff in folders by month & I keep my weekly lesson materials in bins by my desk.

A6 #TLSkyChat For my check out only classes, it is scheduling a regular check out time. For my specials classes, I usually send a shot email letting them know what we’ve been working on & if there is anything they’d like me to cover during library.

A5 #TLSkyChat I wish teachers knew that I could help them w understanding nonfiction materials lessons. We have a push on science for our state testing & a lot of it is understanding nonfiction.

A4 #TLSkyChat I’m sounding like a broken record but seeing the Ss each year, I really just do a refresher. This year I shared about the changes (genrefied fiction & 2nd GN shelf). I do a little tour w new students.

A3 #TLSkyChat being on the specials schedule year after year really helps for relationships w our students. I see all over our classes weekly or every other week for a specials class or check out. My favorite is open library time when I get more time to chat w students.

#TLSkyChst A2: I had some large posters made of our state book selections. I have them displayed outside the library. Inside, in the catalog, & on our online classroom library pages I also have the books displays. I like this bc I don’t have to change it often.

#TLSkyChat A1 I’m excited about completing our fiction genrefying project. We just have to change the sun locations. The students & staff seem to like the change. I hope it gets more students interested in read alike of their favorite novels.

#TLSkyChat Hi! I’m a Pre-6th grade ES librarian in VA! This is our 4th week of school.

#3 - Getting back in the swing of things is exhausting! 😴

Sad. Don’t know what coverage is like in the US but here’s the BBC.

USTA to Broadcasters: DO NOT show Trump getting booed. Streisand effect:

#FirstDayofSchool #ESLibrary #KidLit Perfect first week of school library read aloud. Super cute & a big hit with 1st - 3rd grades. Also, our first Virginia Readers’ Choice book #VRC

#SummerReading #FairfaxCountyPublicLibrary #independentbookstores Thanks FCPL & @scrawlbooks.bsky.social I redeemed my summer reading program coupon for these #VirginiaReadersChoice book for our ES library. The students are going to b so excited! ❤️😎☀️📖

#BackToSchool Can’t believe we go back to school next week. Been working on bee themed library welcome stuff - bookmarks, signs & stickers to welcome our families during our open house. Who else is prepping for back to school? 🖤💛🐝📚📖#SchoolLibrary

#SummerReads just finished Bea and the New Deal Horse. It is a Virginia Readers’ Choice selection & I think it would make a good class read aloud.

#SummerSdventured Great walk today at James Farm Preserve. ❤️ DE’s inland bays. inlandbays.org/visit-the-pr...

#SupportNationslParks Had a great time at Assateague National Park. Ponies near & far, helpful staff, awesome facilities. #FundOurParks

The #ALAAC25 session everyone’s been talking about is coming to C-SPAN! Tune in this Sunday, July 27 at 4:35 PM EDT to see Carla Hayden, former Librarian of Congress, talk with Kwame Alexander about her remarkable career & the unexpected firing that rocked the library world. www.c-span.org/bookTv/

School and district leaders! Teachers should be in any room where decisions and plans are being made. We are degreed professionals and we’re closest to the kids. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8houjcu/

This ruling is dishonest, discriminatory & offensive! #FreedomToRead #FreedomToBeSeen

Trump’s closure of 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline’s LGBTQ+ service is unconscionable and shameful. If you or someone you know needs support, you can still access resources through the Trevor Project, Trans Lifeline, & LGBT National Hotline ⬇️

#SupportPBS 🫶 & support PBS. Donated today & will continue to do so.

A reminder that after years of speaking out against Epstein and giving other survivors the courage to come forward, Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre died by suicide in April at the age of 41. Let's not forget that there are real human tragedies behind everything we're discussing.

#SummerReading #KidLit just finished the first 3 books in @jessicatownsend.bsky.social ‘s Nevermoor series. I highly recommend this engaging & exciting series.

#SummerReading #KidLit Starting summer reading book 5 - Impossible Creatures by @katherinerundell.bsky.social

#BooksUnbanned www.bklynlibrary.org/books-unbanned

#SummerReading #Libby Libby did me a solid bc all 3 Nevermoor books became available in a way I could get 1-3 back to back. Currently reading Hollowpax The Hunt for Morrigan Crow by Jessica Townsend!

The 4th of July is prime time for patriotic myths. May I suggest some actual history instead? Because no, the Declaration of Independence wasn't signed on the 4th, and there's more to the American Revolution than you've read about. @randomhousekids.bsky.social bookshop.org/p/books/hist...

The 4th of July is the perfect time to read The US Declaration of Independence! "He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good." #4thofJuly2025 www.archives.gov/founding.../...

“Congress” didn’t pass this murder budget. Republicans did it. Republicans did it without a single Democratic vote in the House, without a single Democratic vote in the Senate. Be precise and give, uh, credit where credit is due

As a public school librarian, I agree that this ruling will hurt students & public education. Justice Alito’s opinion shows the need for MORE picture book read alouds in the classroom. In a classroom his peers may have helped him realize the author’s actual message. #NoBannedBooks

All students deserve to have their storied heard. Spread peace, love & understanding. Ban hate, not books. #NoBookBans

#SummerReads #ESlibrarian #KitLit Finished summer book 2! Nevermoor The Trials of Morrigan Crow by Jessica Townsend & recommend it to any fantasy living readers!

#SummerReading #KidLit Starting book #2 Nevermoor The Trials of Morrigan Crow by Jessica Townsend ❤️😎📚

#SummerBreak #gardening Love spending time outside in the garden - bought a wagon full of plants & found a few ripe blueberries before the birds. ❤️☀️🌱

#SummerReads #KidLit #SchoolLibrarian #Libby @lisayee.bsky.social @dansantat.bsky.social Here’s my 1st summer read. Love this series & excited to hear there are more to come! What’s your first summer read? 😎📖

#SchoolLibrary #SummerVacation Today was my last day in the building & our 4 year project to genrefy our fiction section is almost done! I can’t wait to share it w our students! ❤️📚

This drawing made my heart happy!

#LastDayofSchool Have fun, be safe, & read lots of books! Caught this beauty on my way thru our courtyard. 🫶📚

A8 #TLDkyChat This year I’ve had students help me weed & pick books to purchase. They really loved those activities so I plan on doing more of this next year.

💛📚Q8 #TLSkyChat is LIVE!💛📚 As you prepare for the next school year, what are YOUR plans for how you are going to use students to make your life easier - and to give them more ownership - in your media center? For more information visit: tlskychat.com #TLSky #TLSkyChat

#Libraries #librarypartners Today was one of my favorite EOY activities - the public youth librarian came to our school to promote the summer reading program #summerreading ❤️😎📖

#SchoolLibrarian I’m having students help me select nonfiction books to purchase & their unsolicited comments on the checklist are making my day!
