"Librarians can give young people access to texts which help them find themselves, all the ways that they're struggling or experiencing their own individuality, and validate themselves." #AASLslm #SchoolLibraryMonth ala.org/aasl/slm

School librarians are community builders, innovators, collaborators, and so much more - including one of the best resources a student can have as they navigate the school year: blog.ed.gov/2023/10/school-l…

At PLA a librarian came up to me and said: "You keep writing your books and we'll keep defending them." And then she started to cry. Librarians are on the receiving end of this vitriol day after day after day. When is this going to end?

Boy walks into reception late for school.
Receptionist says ‘late again!’
Enters building. Passing member of staff says ‘are you late again?’
On his way to class, someone else asks him for a minute. ‘Are you ok?’ They say.
Boy confides that he has no bed. 4 children in a 2 bedroom house. Mum has late nights and he gets himself ready.
Good to consider how we may greet some children in a morning.

This weekend I sorted through some papers my mom saved from my childhood. The top one is my 4th grade self evaluation. The bottom, my 4th grade state test score. Random House published my 6th book last week. #MoreThanATest
