  1. How many of your libraries have external contracts that are NOT for library services. I am talking about who your email service is through, what is used for Project Management, to other factors like mailing lists, are they in the cloud or on premise?

    #BostonPublicLibrary

    #Asana --- Project Management
    #Microsoft --- Email, teams, calendar, mailings (in the cloud)

  7. CW: poop related

    PSA: Anyone use a bathroom with a urinal in it, that is NOT where you take a #2

  8. I kid you not the following happened at the library...

    Two older women walk up and ask

    "Do people check out books or are they just on display?"

    🤯 me
    "yes of course people still check out books, you can see on the ones on hold on the wall and borrower services checks out plenty"

  9. Number one rule for receiving tech assistance at a library, is please read what is on the screen first! Because guess what I do not work for said 'agency' or 'company' so I am learning from what you already did.

    If it says you have to click to verify you are not a robot, then click,
    if you need to enter a backup code that you received when creating the account, guess what I do not have it, you do!

  10. God, I love first-years. A student just shook my hand after I showed him how the library catalogue works.

  11. Dartmouth football is now 5-0. Just grabbed the pair of dedicated earplugs I now keep in my desk for just this purpose.

    I'm impressed by their timing. They always start "Hey baby, I wanna know" as they pass the circ desk.

  12. It's alumni week, and there are a lot of kids here. I got to give one boy directions to the bathroom (while he hopped from foot to foot), then later I got to give him five (5) pieces of tape.

    A girl just came by with her dad asking where the movable stacks are, because they are so fun (they are).

    And a man just walked by while explaining the concept of infinity (math major, or theology?) to his child.

  13. "Haven't you read the email about that?"
    "DO I LOOK LIKE SOMEONE WHO'S READING THEIR EMAILS?"

    - overheard in the #library, finals week edition

  14. Tonight I found a tall, wooden library cart in a dark corner, surrounded by other, lower, *newer* library carts. On the end of it was taped a printed name tag: "Tipping Toby."

  15. The library is PACKED tonight. Lots of folks printing and stapling term papers, starting to cram for finals.

    And of course catching up with each other. Loudly.

  16. Halfway done with this shift, and only 7 pages left of indexing to do.

    Luckily I have a Rivers of London book to read when I finish.

  17. I need more #librarians, #libraryworkers and #libraries to follow. If you're out there, shout at me! I can't say I'm a fun account, but there are frequent dog antics. #librarian #libraryworker #library #publiclibrary

  18. While I'm thinking about it: I'm looking for #mazeldon and #librarian / #libraryworker thoughts. I'm contemplating withdrawing The Boy in the Striped Pajamas from our collection. I'm having trouble coming up with reasons to keep it, other than "it's really popular," and "people will expect we'll have it." Thoughts?

  19. Just found out that J. Edgar Hoover was a #LibraryWorker at #LibraryOfCongress when he was in college, and it made me think about how many #LibraryWorkers have cop tendencies. 🤔

  20. #Introduction Former #Baptist #Missionary. Co-editor, #Theology and #Prince (2019); & Theology and #ProtestMusic (2023), Lexington/Fortress Academic. #Librarian at #GeorgiaCollege, opinions my own. If you're a #LibraryWorker, or an #exvangelical, or you believe in #kindness, or you like #Prince, or #MidnightMass, or #JesusAndJohnWayne, you're more than welcome to connect. Bonus points if you also like #MrRogers, #Quakers, #Albania, or #Mentoring people. Forming community here!

  21. O.K. in learning about a.gup.pe, I accidentally created a new list for librarians here: @librarians 😜 It turns out it's like the Klondike gold rush where the first person who names the list creates it!

    Here's a link to the thread where it happened: mastodon.social/@ryanschultz/1

    Anyway, calling all #Library #Libraries #Librarian #Librarians #LibraryWorker #LibraryWorkers to follow the brand new [email protected] list!

  22. Intro: I'm an #InstructionalDesigner, #union organizer & #LibraryWorker. My home state is NJ & I now live in MI. I'm Lebanese/Irish, Bi/Queer, and #ADHD. Hoping to build a network here across interests, backgrounds & identities (what I admittedly love about #Twitter). My dream job = storm chaser, so talk to me about #weather and #science! General interests: #politics #ReproductiveJustice #DigitalAccessibility #LGBTQ #AntiRacism #HealthEquity #Neurodiversity #cats #comedy #gardening #MutualAid
