#AASL25 was a blast! It always renews me as a librarian. Seeing national friends, going to fabulous sessions, and having amazing keynotes really raises the PD bar for me. Oh, and @mamagilbs.bsky.social and I presented two well-received sessions, too! Feeling like a rockstar heading home. 🥰
#AASL25 was over too fast! So many new ideas and great connections with the library community from all over the country. Do I really have to go back to the real world? 😫
"I'm just trying to be honest about me and about us, so that maybe someone can feel a little more free." - @jasonreynolds83.bsky.social at #AASL25
"That troublemaker kid in class--that's your leader. You have to pour into every kid." - @jasonreynolds83.bsky.social at #AASL25 Thank you, sir, for helping highlight those kids who too often are pressed into the shadows.
"Writing is play. It is my playground, and more kids might write if we treated it that way." - @jasonreynolds83.bsky.social at #AASL25 👏🏻👏🏻Preach!
"I want to know who you are when no one is looking." - @jasonreynolds83.bsky.social at #AASL25 Yes! Show me your true self. Let's make it safe to be vulnerable and weird with each other.
So excited to learn from @mamagilbs.bsky.social @rgrov1013.bsky.social presenting about passive programming in the school library for teens today at #AASL25
"Libraries don't just store books. They store empathy, justice, and truth." - Steve Hofstetter, keynote speaker at #AASL25 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I get it. Libraries are expensive, and librarians are expensive. Our students & future leaders need all of the information literacy, media literacy, and opportunities to read deeply and widely they can get. Curriculum won't save us, testing won't, & AI sure as Hell won't. Fund libraries. #TLSkyChat
Students need school libraries - in an age if mis and disinformation, AI summaries and declining literacy - why would you get rid of your specialised staff in these areas? www-bbc-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.bbc....
This article has some great takeaways abt teens' media literacy for librarians and educators. My takeaway: the power of peer fact checking #EduSky #Skybrarians
1/4 *taps mic* My byline is back for the first time in many moons. I wrote about teenagers, conspiracy theories and what it was like when social media rumors became personal and painful at an Oklahoma high school. 🧵with the some takeaways: www.the74million.org/article/i-ta...

TREVOR PROJECT HOTLINE - UPDATE I deleted my post about the Trevor Project's hotline—see: @emceebois.bsky.social's clarification ⬇️. Please share the clarification far & wide. And if you need to talk: Hotline: 1-866-488-7386 Text: Text ‘START’ to 678-678 Chat: www.thetrevorproject.org/get-help/
CLARIFICATION : The Trevor Project's hotline will still be live. But basically this means LGBTQ people can no longer be connected to it through the US national 988 suicide prevention hotline. They will need to be contacted DIRECTLY So spread this around They can be texted. They can be called.
My team and I were chosen for the Library Luminary Award by our district library leaders! It is only given to 1 library in the district (of about 200) each year, and we are so very honored. Who knew that hanging out with teenagers and being absolutely ridiculous could earn awards? #Skybrarian
