Bringing out some end o’ year #LibrarianFashion. Nice!

Sartorial co-host, Chris, levelling-up the #cardigan #LibrarianFashion game…woo-hoo! Got some favourite cardigans to share? Drop them in the comments.

A happy listener testimonial!

In case you missed it, or if you’re a new follower, here are the links to our latest #kidlit & #LibrarianFashion episode. We’re discussing a picture book and a non-fiction picture book that we think you’ll want to add to your collection. Listen in…

Gadzooks! What’s up…? No tie for my #LibrarianFashion today? How odd… (Too rushed this morning.)

If you haven’t had a chance to listen to our celebratory podcast about incredible picture books (and #LibrarianFashion), we recommend this recent episode.

Thanks to @sartoriallibrary.bsky.social not only for their podcast celebrations of picture books and librarian fashion, but for the #LibrarianFashion tag. Browsing the latter is a wonderful way to discover some bibliophile #Uplift! 📚

When I found out about @sartoriallibrary.bsky.social's #LibraryFashion tag, of course the first person I thought of was Sylvie Facon, who turns books into dresses: steampunktendencies.com/sylvie-falco...

Symbiosis, friends. Uplift the authors and uplift the illustrators. Equally. It takes both to make picture book magic. In our podcast discussions we wax poetic about the writer’s text, the illustrator’s artwork and the beautiful interplay between the two mutually enhancing elements. Listen in.

So Decrees This Librarian: More adults need to read picture books! (a recurring epiphany that is not mine alone) … …

Welcome to our newer followers! If you haven’t had a chance yet, please give an episode (or two or three?) a listen. Links in comment 🧵 Our usual episode segments include: —Library Looks ( #librarianfashion ) —Library Books (in-depth #kidlit talk) —Tangents (various #bibliophile sidetracking)

In each episode, we take a deep dive into two stellar picture books. Learn how they would make great story time read aloud, why they’d be good addition to your library, or how you might use them in a classroom, or why it would be a great lap time book with a child. Give us a listen ⬇️

In each episode we discuss Library Looks, Library Books, and Library Tangents. Ep 11 Library Looks: Paul salutes his MLIS alma mater with UT-Austin Longhorn Orange. Chris's tie reminds us that if you work with squirrels you have to dress for squirrels. Listen in ⬇️

We like to think that some of the best bits are in the digressions, the musings… Library Tangents: Chris gets tangled in the horns of sports (lack of) knowledge; the creative importance of building toys; wandering and noticing architecture; how we connect color and emotion …and more in Ep 11⬇️

Ep 11: Squirrels, Longhorns, Building Blocks & Emotional Colors Prairie Boy by @barbrosenstock.bsky.social & @csneal.bsky.social Yesterday, I Had The Blues by Jeron Ashford Frame & R. Gregory Christie. apple.co/40QJLdc spoti.fi/4hxW0SQ @exlibrismrhunt.bsky.social @paulvinelli.bsky.social #kidlit

It’s a good idea, we think. Come for the book discussion and/or the librarian fashion discussion…stay for the joyful tangents. We really love #LibraryLife and #kidlit. We think you’ll find it infectious.
