Local library has a beginner crochet class today. I’m not a beginner but I had “mug cozy” on my upcoming project list for this month so I signed up! #crochet

A4. Libraries and librarians are adaptable, always meeting the needs of our communities. I think we'll still be there with literacy and community support at the heart of what we do. In schools, teachers and kids need us! #TLSkyChat #AASLSLM

A3. When I planned a lesson about myths based on the night sky, I created a classroom bubble from plastic and a fan. Add a little star projector and you can have a storytime to remember! #TLSkyChat #AASLSLM

A1. Recently I was doing a lesson based on @mauramadigan7.bsky.social PBL book--Eco Fashion with 5th grade. A 3rd grader walked thorugh and said, "I hope we get to do that! That's so sigma!" #TLSkyChat #AASLSLM

A1. When I was a kid, my mom went to my librarian before summer break and requested books about our vacation destination--a three week national park tour. Those were the only books we had to read! What an amazing librarian I had who curated and loaned all of those to us! #AASLSLM #TLSky

I'm Carolyn, elementary librarian in Northern Virginia. I'm really excited to dust off Deck.blue for tonight's chat! It's been a busy day so I'm glad to sit still for a moment. #AASLSLM #TLSkyChat

It’s going to be a great day of learning for NoVa librarians at the @vaasl.bsky.social Potomac Region’s spring conference! Starting with our Librarian of the Year award for our area and followed by amazing sessions! #VAASL

In the second half of January I weeded a lot in our 900s. January circulation in the section was 118% of December's and we had fewer January school days. I weed. I know weeding makes a difference. It's nice to see it in the data. #TLSky #SchoolLibraries

If you're cold and chilly, maybe you need a new hoodie, sweatshirt or T for February. Proceeds support a scholarship local to me. www.customink.com/fundraising/... #schoollibrarians #TLSky #schoollibrary

The pinkie curse is in effect in The Maldita Diamond! This game from Gamewright got rave reviews and students are excited to play again at Game Club next week. #GamingInLibraries #SchoolLibraries

Strawberry and Leif seem excited that I finally put up their Crab Facts Calendar! #TLSky #SchoolLibraries @sarahmackattack.bsky.social

My big goal today is to watch all of the Netflix fireplaces. So far Fireplace for your Home is the runaway winner, Mid-Century Modern a solid runner up, and The Witcher Fireplace more cozy than I was expecting. Family Pack Fireplace is in progress. #snowday

When you bring your gerbils home for break and your house has a cat.

Today was the first day of recording for a third grade project. We are making a small audiobook library for their grade. After getting them started and settled I looked around the library and every single kid was sitting in a spot reading aloud. It felt like magic. #SchoolLibraries #TLSky

Popcorn day is always a favorite for our library pets. All the gerbils and the crabs shared a popped cob as an afternoon treat. #TLSky #SchoolLibraries

I’m giving him away as a thank you tomorrow but I almost don’t want to because he’s SO CUTE!!

A student left this on my desk during a family event on Friday. It’s lovely! It has so many loose parts! We’re going to be gluing alllll day! #TLSky #SchoolLibraries

Just one small way I can bring the fun to my colleagues this week! It feels like a peppermint mocha and cocoa kind of day. #TLSky #SchoolLibrarians

Lots of book love this week! Our hold list is shaping up to be very long. Which is good because of interest but bad because the copies I was able to (personally) purchase are limited. #SchoolLibrary #TLSky

Today in Game Club: Othello, No Stress Chess, Uno, Magic the Gathering, Outfoxed, Dr. Eureka, Ortrio, Dog Crimes, Gnomes at Night, Deduckto, Sherlock, Dragon’s Breath, Dragonwood, and Nut Nut Squirrel. We are definitely #GamingInLibraries! #TLSky

Ready for #SLJSummit! After lunch, book shop, tea, and yarn we arrive at the NC Museum of Natural Sciences.

I love finishing our Dinovember celebrations with these dino shadow puppets! Today was the final Kinder class to enjoy the project along with some dinosaur activity stations. #TLSky #SchoolLibrary

These restroom info share spaces have been a success in my school. Got the idea from our public library that use mini flyers all the time. I share tips, links, and article snapshots. It’s paired with an Article Library I keep in the workroom with longer reads. #TLSky #SchoolLibrary

Have any school librarians made their staff a gift guide of books and games for the month? I made one a few years ago and will put one into the world unless you have a great one that's a better starting point. #TLSky #SchoolLibrary #SchoolLibrarians

Sandra Boynton must know about Secret Staff Spirit Days!

I'm so lucky to have amazing librarian friends. Today I had help working through an upcoming conference talk and got a good dose of cheerleading on a grant application. Both are now in good shape, which wasn't the case this morning!

I love that our Barnes & Noble is now between work and home. I went to Starbucks for a hot drink and then to pick up Variation. I’ve missed hanging out in a bookstore!
