@emtaggart Sincere apologies for missing this comment. I hope you get to see the library when you go to Austin. The view in the highlighted picture looks so amazing to me.

@catladylilia Awww thank you! I look to all of you for the light as well!

@inabookbind Thanks for the kind words about my teaching! Means a lot right now!

There was good lighting for the picture for sure!

@valancy All the planning and organizing you can do leading up to the e-port can be very helpful. And also think of it as though you’re just writing a series of essays and take it one step at a time.

@crlhayd Glad to offer this flexibility in these times. Thanks for your thoughts on the kill. I so enjoy wearing it.

@saraschwan happy to offer flexibility. How cool your family is in the Stewart lineage. I just love the tartan.

@terribeth I had some amazing experiences with all my fan type stuff on Twitter years ago. I will miss that. I’m sorry you’re struggling. Please do the best you can and please think of the assignments perhaps a bit of a distraction and be as creative or whatever as you’d like… that goes for everyone.

@msandoval I so agree. I think space to just be is one of our important roles.

@inabookbind It’s such a cool story of rebuilding and going way beyond what they had before.

@arthurkolat I think they do sometimes!

Michelle – I so appreciate your thought on cultural humility. We actually just updated the lecture and info 200 from cultural competence to cultural humility because I think it is that important of a concept. Thanks for this post.

@arthurkolat I so enjoyed the video. You brought all of the facets of the library as classroom to life. What wonderful feedback you received as well. And I must tell you I enjoyed the color of your crocs. 😀

Louis – I so appreciate your honesty and thoughtfulness about this post. The last week plus has been difficult in many ways. I feel like I’m grieving your last paragraph resonates and I hope and I will always have hope that this will be the way forward.

Kiana – I so appreciate all these amazing examples!

@acorey This is all so interesting! I agree that information professionals can play a role in helping parents decide how they approach technology and their children. I see both sides: too much screen time cannot be the best, but also we want to raise conscientious and thoughtful digital citizens.

You know I would totally advocate for part-time staff having access to continuing types of learning. Even if it’s 30 minutes of watching a video, etc. I think that could be very powerful and useful. I hope that change comes to your library.
