The patient was rushed to the library at 11:02 and doctors immediately began surgery. Gluing, taping, crossed fingers did little to stop the page bleeding. The patient was pronounced dead at 11:52. RIP. #libraryer

Y'all, I know the government wants to take over Greenland, but this book is proof that that is a bad idea! #readtoresist

More brave reads. The Ogress and the Orphans by Kelly Barnhill is about a community that is torn apart by fear of the unknown. Blame is cast at the feet of the ogress who lives outside of town, while the fashionable mayor does nothing to fix the towns problem, only sow more discord. For a book that is beautiful, hopeful and timely, read The Ogress and the Orphans. #readtoresist #booksforcompassion #booksforempathy #bravereader

Here's a warm fuzzy patron post. We have a church group that brings over handmade scarves every winter. When a patron from the senior apartments across the street saw that, he brought over a pile of scarves and hats that he made and collected. #librarylife.

I don't say this often, but it's a beautiful, snowy day at the library. #librarylife

It's been rough at the library lately. But we have some great patrons. Like the guy who painted us gourds with Santa and elves. It's strange but funny and makes people smile. #librarylife

It's my first try with creepy crochet. I think I did it wrong. My grim reaper looks super jazzed to be here!

I love Crafty Llama by Mike Kerr. Llama knows that she should be doing chores but instead she spends the whole day crafting. Just like me today finishing my mermaid bag! #craftyllama

Do not disturb. I'm doing serious research! Next month I am teaching a class entitled "The Curious Wisdom of Picture Books" for the Learning Is ForEver program through Western Illinois University. We will discuss what makes a picture book and what you can learn from 32 pages (and under 500 words!). #librarylife #picturebooks #wiu #learningisforever

How can one sneak a book into a baseball game when the stadium has a clear bag policy? Asking for a friend. #daisymayjohnson #howtobefree

Just a thought....Let librarians run golf tournaments. We will maintain perfect silence, everyone will get as many free books to read as they like, and we will all have a lovely day outside. And people will hit some balls with sticks or something. #johndeereclassic #librarianlife

I brought my nine year old daughter to work today. Then I told her to go pick out a biography about woman for our Women's History Month display. She picked out a book about Taylor Swift. She's not wrong. But I do need an updated biography.

I asked my nine year old to read my story and make notes if a part didn't make sense or if there were words she didn't understand. She corrected my run-on sentences and subbed some words, but her spelling needs work!

I've started a little project called Bitsy Books on Amazon. I design and upload notebooks to sell. So far my favorite is Let Inspiration Strike, but all five of these designs are live. Which is your favorite? #bitsybooksjournals
