So it’s my birthday AND the finished copies of FIELD STUDY (@FSGOriginals) arrived with that little circle that says James Laughlin Award winner (@POETSorg) 😭🎉. If you need me, I’ll be outside in the sun, drinking wine, and crying. HBD to me 🥳.

Everything about this makes my heart happy 🥲
Hearing @lizzo play some of the Library's priceless antique instruments on Monday was such a gift, and we were honored and happy to help her share that gift with her concert audience Tuesday night. Here is some more behind-the-scenes footage of her Library tour. #LizzoAtLOC
