👀Look whose review is the cover book for January’s @ala-booklist.bsky.social! Grab a mic and tell folks to read The Free Verse Society by @delaliadjoa.bsky.social ! Pairs beautifully with Truth Is by Hannah V. Sawyerr and The Poet X by Elizabeth Acevedo🎤

Look at the official White House website about January 6th. Shameful. (Link in comments.)

Not bad - let's see yours! tenpages.github.io/us-level/us....

40% of Americans did not read a book in 2025. The good, the bad, and the deeply concerning new data from a YouGov survey of American reading habits: bookriot.com/american-rea...

This is disgusting and enraging, in a week where there's already been so much that is disgusting and enraging. wapo.st/45wwUjl

If you were busy being on break during break...you may have missed this! Steve "threatened" me to join him. You may not wanna listen to me, but Steve works hard on this podcast & deserves some listens.

Reminder: there is no argument against Tony that is correct. None. You argue with this you are wrong. Get over it. And I will not argue with you because your opinion is not worth my time.

Ain't this the shit?

I read last year’s end year turnover entry and damn so many things are SOSDD

Name your favorite musical Les Mis, Hamilton, MJ the Musical, JCS, Rent, West Side Story (with real rep not white people)

Free people read freely. “Protecting truth often begins with someone refusing to let it be removed silently.” @ifrt-ala.bsky.social @uabookbans.bsky.social @la-cac.org

He’s here! Just in time for a cozy reading day! 🐨🥰📚☕️

A reminder that this thread exists and that it's regularly updated. It goes back to 2021. None of this is new. None of it is novel. We've shouted from the rooftops for five years now. No one is coming to save us. We've got to be the ones to do it.

Happy New Year from the Freedom to Read Project! 🎉📚 Thank you to every librarian, educator, parent, student, and advocate who stood up for access to books in 2025. Your voices and courage matter. Here’s to resilience, community, and a 2026 filled with curiosity, truth, and unbanned books.

It's a new year. Crack those new books open, readers!

Cheers for libraries! @illibraryassoc.bsky.social

BREAKING: Democrat Zohran Mamdani becomes mayor of New York City, taking the oath of office at an historic subway station in Manhattan.

Water is wet

Every library in the area is open ❄️❄️❄️

“At a time when we see a breakdown in civic society, Jones embodies the best of citizenship and the courage it requires to defend our freedoms.”

“She asked for only $1 and a public apology. And in an online video posted this November, one of the plaintiffs admitted that statements he made about Jones were false.”

It's public education. Fund it. Use the $1.9bn in unclaimed state funds for schools instead of building a new stadium for the Browns owner who's worth $8bn and could build his stadium with pocket change. www.beaconjournal.com/story/news/e...

Word of the day: hypocrisy.

If you’re here trying to control women’s bodies, that’s called “wombscrolling”.

If you’re here looking for gravesites, that’s called “tombscrolling”

I think this all the time😊 @neonimpossible.bsky.social @simplyrain.bsky.social

Still in my cozy era🥰

The U.S. government just banned five people from entering the country because it doesn’t like their speech. This ban, according to the State Department, is necessary to protect free speech. If that sounds insane to you, congratulations on your reading comprehension.

I don't think most Americans have any idea how dangerous it is for a president to declare an entire ethnic group to be "garbage." This is how the worst atrocities in human history have begun.

Still up. Glad I posted here and not YouTube. This is what Bari Weiss and CBS tried to hide from us.

Starting January 1, Illinois will open up a pool of grant money to help bolster security in libraries. It's a direct response to increasing threats and safety challenges in libraries. www.facebook.com/reel/8813402...

Happiness is having the day off, good books, and my cozy new bookish blanket🥰 #cozy #books

“the president seems to be using the doj to hide his years of involvement with the most notorious child sex trafficking ring in world history” feels like a story worth reporting on

Hey friends- if you scan this qr code I get freebies on tiktok. Thanks in advance!

Family fun - bringing the JOY this year with matching jammies🎅🏼🎄!

I know, I cheated a bit. Don’t be a Grinch 💚🤣 .

There are a lot of files in this new dataset that have made me feel this way. I’m still making my way through DataSet 8, but this is some vile shit.

Lily has been working so hard to get out of this hole but she and her family keep having setbacks. If you can donate or share, it really does help! #librarysky

Finally done with work for a few days - so it is vacation and fun and rest, right?

I know her! Y'all... @drtlovesbooks.bsky.social asked me quite a few times to be a guest, but it was hard to say no to him at AASL. Despite my fears, this was a great experience...you (my school librarian peers) should consider being a guest as well!

Ours is the government of grift.

For Jesus’ birthday this year, he’s asking for affordable housing, universal healthcare, and for people to stop using his name to explain why they’re being cruel to strangers.
