“Stories saved my life.”

I am beyond hype for four days of glorious librarian learning at #BossLibrarianPD starting tomorrow!!!
(And sure hope to see some friendly faces cause Imposter Syndrome is real 😅!)
SO BASICALLY PUBLIC LIBRARIES ARE JUST 0.4% OF THE NEW YORK CITY BUDGET, BUT THE MAYOR IS TRYING TO CUT THE LIBRARY'S BUDGET WAY BACK. I’M TALKING $58.3 MILLION! LIBRARIES ARE ALREADY CLOSED ON SUNDAYS BECAUSE OF PREVIOUS CUTS AND MOST BRANCHES WILL BE OPEN FOR JUST FIVE DAYS A WEEK IF THESE CUTS GO THROUGH!! WE ONLY HAVE UNTIL THE END OF JUNE TO TELL @NYCMAYOR#NOCUTSTOLIBRARIES AND SAVE THE LIBRARY.

Summer has begun but already I’m so looking forward to the way this PD fills my cup and gets me reflecting on what is to come!
@Boss_Librarian is the ultimate for making this happen 🙌 #BossLibrarianPD#SchoolLibrarians
This is a recurring problem in DCPS schools & a real accessibility issues for disabled students and staff. @DCDGS needs to do better than weeks & months to repair school elevators.
The only elevator at Eliot-Hine Middle School has been broken for 3 weeks. A thread on how hard this makes it to keep things accessible, operate a school building, and provide a quality experience for all:

4. I spent all year collecting 100s of lbs of books for a free book fair at field day Monday. I have no way to get down 4 floors to give kids FREE BOOKS for summer
The only elevator @ EHMS has been broken for 3 wks
@DCDGS@councilofdc@charlesallen@dcpublicschools@WTUTeacher
No urgency from @DCDGS to fix the EHMS elevator that has been broken for 3 weeks despite everyone in our building doing their due diligence. Please help ensure we are all in a safe & thriving bldg for ALL of our community

As a public school librarian, I am eternally grateful for partners like @CapHillFound. This Winter, our @EliotHine library received a grant to outfit a student-designed Zen Den for our students in the library. Thank you for seeing, investing in, and supporting our community! 1/3
We will continue to add to and adjust the space with student feedback, but students have taken such ownership and care of this amazing space! None of this would be possible without the support of @CapHillFound. THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts! 2/3
