  2. Here's your reminder to go and join your local library if you're able. Libraries provide so much more than books, and are such an important part of a community. Especially these days, it's essential to support them, and the librarians, library assistants etc that work there(so many of which are leftist, genuinely kind, helpful and caring).

  3. Does anyone know of books/novels fashioned as an epistolary/exchange of letters? As an aside, I'd like some other book formats too! Someone recommended House of Leaves, pretty interesting format!

  4. For humans that may come across this. One of the most important jobs anywhere on the planet is a Librarian. Now, more than ever we need to protect them and prevent them from joining tech orgs. If you aren’t already become friends with your local librarian especially those senior in their roles. They speak the Sumerian of search and can lead you to knowledge. They are the super search function you’ve ignored this entire time, promise you, if it can’t be found by a librarian it doesn’t exist above ground. #libraries #librarians #librariansofmastodon #knowledge

  5. Calling #mapstodon !!! Also #librarians and #archivists !!!

    I used a lot of old maps in my work for York Library and Archive, which I'm proud to say are on permanent display.

    But I'm running out of maps!

    If anyone has any old sheet maps (see pic for examples) - not the folded retail sort - that need a new home, please could i have them?!?!

    I would love to make you something from them in return, if you'd like.
    Thank you!!!

  7. Safe to say I’ve been involved with this library conference for a while now. You’ll never find a more wonderful group of librarians who are focused on helping each other and providing services to our patrons!

    — University of Maryland Libraries, UMD Libraries, College Park, MD, United States

  13. You know me, not Mr. Positive, so here goes with something I’ve observed for many years:

    Some (many?) of the most well known and apparently high achieving people in LIS are not good people to work with.

    Ask vendors. Vendors always know.

    Just been asked by an ever so polite gentleman if 'girl writers write mostly girl stories '
    I managed to quickly cite Stella Rimington but oh my, it's just as well he was polite!

  16. Old books of the co-operative movement!

    "Protect and safeguard the books, publications, archival materials and resources placed in trust for the use of the co-operative movement and for future generations.
    • Make these available to all members who would wish to use them."

  17. “If there’s one word associated with libraries and librarians by the general public, it is probably ‘silence’. Libraries are traditionally thought of as silent reflective places; librarians are supposed to monitor noise levels and ‘sssshhhh’ appropriately.

    But have we, as a profession and as a sector, internalised these messages too much? Do we silence ourselves when we should be speaking out …?”

  18. I’d love to donate my music to any library that wants to have it, 100% pro bono. Libraries are/were foundational to my upbringing, and I would be honored to have my work part of them.

  19. How you know that your children’s librarian background is still alive and well: at 3:00 AM when you can’t sleep, finding yourself researching which translation of Pippi Longstocking is the best.

  20. You know you're a #librarian when a co-worker says to you, "did you hear about the horrible smell yesterday?" and your response is, "did someone shit in the hallway again??"
