On Canadian School Library Day, we want to celebrate the importance of school libraries, and not have to fight for their existence... yet earlier this year, the Ford gov made it easier to eliminate school libraries! Take action to save school libraries: bit.ly/4eoFO4x

This photo by David Burdeny is still one of the coolest iceberg photos in existence thanks to the perfect composition and symmetry that separates the photo into four different sections of colour and texture [site: davidburdeny.com/]

If a job is overpaid, easy peasy, includes three months vacation, and work hours from 9-3:30, wouldn't there be a surplus of applicants? #onted #edchat

We can do better thread! ❤️ How many schools actually have a properly funded & staffed school library? Sadly, the answer as many of us know, is too few. Shared w/permission. 1/4 @oslacouncil @CdnSchoolLibrar @Bellmoore_HWDSB @HWDSB @Alfehrman @Alex__Johnstone #ONSchoolLibraries

FINALLY SEEN is my love letter to librarians and educators all over this country! 💌 I got to where I am today because they believed in me and fed me books. Now that ability to hand children books is under threat. They need our support, more than ever! #FinallySeen #5DaysLeft

For those that need to hear it: Please don't label books with LGBTQ characters or place them on a special shelf/section/basket/whatever. This has the potential of outing a student to peers, Ts, or family, and that is never okay. For some, it could be life threatening. 1/
