So thrilled to be one of the organizers for the inaugural International School Librarians in Europe (ISLE) Conference this past weekend at the American School in London. 56 librarians from Europe (and beyond!) in the same room was pretty magical. I can't wait for ISLE 2026! #ISLE25 isleconf.com

For any librarians and teacher-librarians in European international schools (or beyond!), please consider joining us at a new conference in March 2025 - inspired by Librarians Knowledge Sharing Workshop in Asia! The expression of interest form is live now. isleconf.com

My cousin John is in the NYT today with his wonderful new music quartet, JACK. So so so proud of him! I am pretty sure my mom still has a copy of his 3rd grade report on Beethoven somewhere on her fridge. www.nytimes.com/2023/11/26/a...

The closing date for my (wonderful!) job is next Friday, 1 December. Come work with @librarianedge.bsky.social in a big, busy, incredibly (!) well-resourced secondary library at Tanglin Trust in Singapore! Happy to answer any questions about the job, the school, and life in Singapore.

I am leaving my wonderful job as Head of Senior Library at Tanglin Trust in Singapore. The position has been posted on TEST and on the school website: tts.bigredsky.com/page.php?pag... Please share! And feel free to contact me with any questions.

A few months ago I updated and expanded my favorite (fairly global, mostly English-language) list of children's and YA book awards / reviews / lists / readers. You can find it here: bit.ly/BESTBOOKS2023

For a presentation in Dubai last week, I surveyed international school librarians about the restrictions and regulations they face in their contexts. You can see the presentation here: docs.google.com/presentation...
