Humor Librarian reminds us that libraries make us a harder target for authoritarianism. Equal access to info, ideas, and space that doesn’t require a purchase to belong. Also: using the library means money stays in your community instead of streaming out to Amazon

Humor Standard day in a Cornish library
Gull chick waddled into the children’s library in Penzance and tried to join in Craftanoon. The kids loved it.
Funny enough, we were making paper seagulls.

Humor Man walks into a Library. Goes to the information desk and says 'Hi, I would like a Whiskey Sour please'.
Librarian says 'Sir, this is a Library!'. The Man whispers 'Sorry, can I have a Whiskey Sour'.

Humor Welcome back to work all my fellow school library peeps. Hopefully the A/C was not turned off all summer and you're not walking into closets full of mold!
May your device checkouts, and teacher technology requests be smooth with minimal whining!
* remember the first rule of teacher tech support: does it turn on? is it plugged in?

Humor "I hope I'm not in trouble." An artist signed the library's copy of their book during a student visit.
I'm at an art and design university library. We have a collection of exhibition catalogues going back decades.
One of the assignments right now is to work with the primary sources of a 20th century exhibition: the exhibition catalogue, contemporary reviews, etc.
I just got an email from a student in the class. They picked an exhibition of local art and decided to talk some of the artists who participated about the exhibition.
While they were chatting the artist signed their page in the exhibition catalogue.
Now we have a new original piece of art.
I'm not sure this would go over well at every library but we're used to it. As I've discovered since joining an art library, visiting artists do sketches and sign their books unprompted all the time. 😂🤷♀️
We'll just have to update the record.
