Booktalks should be full of passion and enthusiasm, giving main character energy. Spoiler alert for Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins.

A federal judge has halted Trump's attempt to eliminate the Institute of Museum and Library Services — the agency which provides federal funding to libraries and museums.
 
District court Judge John J. McConnell Jr. issued an injunction, stating that it violated the Administrative Procedure Act.

Really disappointing that librarians are the first to go, when in reality, they make a positive impact on literacy, digital citizenship and technology integration.

Finished Sunrise at the Reaping and my heart can’t take anymore! Haymitch Abernathy’s story is brutal, emotional, and twisted in the way only a Hunger Games book can be. It’s raw, intense, and impossible to forget.

We’re celebrating World Quantum Day with a classic makerspace project: thaumatropes! Just like superposition in quantum physics, this optical illusion shows how two images can exist in one space, at the same time. You might’ve seen the Google Doodle today. #WorldQuantumDay #GoogleDoodle #MakerSpace

I appreciate this but my video is meant for librarian PD tips, not students.

Just finished The Half-life of Love by Brianna Bourne and I’m emotionally wrecked. Grief, time, and chemistry tangle into a heartbreakingly beautiful love story I won’t forget.

Books, beads, and besties! Yesterday, students celebrated national library week by making friendship bracelets with their bestie. Beads may have gone everywhere, but it was a great time.

Using Dollar Tree garden labels as book feature signs! I write a quick blurb and stick them in the books on display. It helps students see what the book is about at a glance and boosts engagement! 📚✨ #Booksky #LibraryTok #LibrarianLife #SchoolLibrary #BookDisplayIdeas
