This also means sharing expertise on when certain technology should *not* be used. It means using our skills as librarians to know that something like AI does not belong in education. It doesn't mean gobbling down every piece of edtech tossed our way.

While NJ librarians were convening in Atlantic City at the joint NJLA/NJASL conference, Sen. Andy Kim was in Asbury Park thanking them for being “great pillars and models for protecting free speech” @njasl.bsky.social @ilovenjlibraries.bsky.social @thelibrariansfilm.bsky.social @kim.senate.gov
Oh, how I missed conference… been too long. Loved seeing all my #schoollibrary peeps at #NJASL #NJLA. I’ve been doing this almost 20 years but I still learn something new, make new connections. Always leaves me exhausted yet energized! @njasl.bsky.social #schoollibrariesrock
Q to @librarianjones.com: You were raised in a very conservative tradition. What caused you to change? Amanda: I didn't. I was raised to love others, help people, be a good Samaritan, love our country, stand up for the Constitution. That's what I'm doing... 1/ #TLSky #EduSky #SchoolLibrarians
Amanda (cont'd): I'm living the way I was raised. The folks coming after me are the ones who are not practicing what they preach. 💯💯💯💯💯 #NJASL26
The eternal issue of conferences - Too many interesting things happening at the same time! 😂 #NJASL26 #TLSky #EduSky #SchoolLibrarians #SchoolLibrary
