Such an adorable and effective way of sharing your story. I’m so sorry about your experience of sexual harassment in the library–as you said, you are a member of the library community, too, and such a breach of trust must have been so difficult. I am so happy to hear that this class has helped renew some of your…Read more

This was such a creative approach to your virtual hyperlinked symposium, I loved the newspaper layout/format. Thank you for sharing your personal thoughts and feelings regarding your doubts of working in the library profession/space, and the reason you had those doubts-which are completely valid. Also from personal experiences of my…Read more

Yes, we have also have those at my organization too, and the kids seem to really enjoy it-and that is a great comparison because I do know the program has different stations for the kids to explore and learn about during the event, which is similar to my idea. And I was surprised too, I used a number…Read more

I can’t imagine all the time and hard work they dedicated to building that foundation to digitize and add so many items online for users to peruse, in addition to all their virtual programming!

The idea of the snack cart is right on target in my mind, and it does lead to maybe conversation striking up when students are grabbing a snack or a cup of coffee There’s something to be said…Read more

Especially since they have a whole building (with multiple floors) of archives of various media.

Thank you for your comment! Like you, I also see myself as a helper. I want to do all I can to support the people around me, including solving their problems. However, as I continue to work in a public library, I learn every single day that it is okay not to have the right answers right away. As libraries, we may not be able to…Read more

I sometimes feel a little bad saying I have almost no social media accounts because we are in a professional world that relies more and more on it.

All of my dogs have played a role in this class over the years and in spring 2019 when Cooper was diagnosed with liver cancer, I told the class because it felt like the right thing to do. The support I received from my students was incredible. Sending you the same kind of support.

I think you will find inspiration here and you can surely focus your assignments on the students that you serve for this class. I hope you enjoy the CYOA as well. Welcome to the hyperlinked library.
