What better way to celebrate #EarthDay than with a hand-coloured incunable? 🌎

This is Ptolemy's 'Cosmographia', from 1482, which features 32 early examples of printed maps!

Shelfmark: Grylls 2.195

Shoutout to the anonymous person somewhere in L.A. who took the time to leave this very important message for us all
A concrete embankment under an overpass, by the side of a highway. Scrubby trees grow from rectangular cutouts near the curb of the embankment; an orange tipped-over pylon lies close to the shadow of the tree on the right. On the embankment's slope is a graffiti message: "TAKE NAPS"

Joined BlueSky today. I'm an international school librarian living in Europe. Remembering a trip to my local Bruna here in Voorburg, NL, & finding Dutch translations of fav #kidlit series Skandar & the Unicorn Thief, City Spies, & Amari and the Night Brothers. Looking forward to connecting #inTLchat
