Can't wait to connect with so many great librarians at #AASL25 in St. Louis!

I had the same thought. It’s really hard to decide which sessions to attend. Also, just too much information to scroll through.

Agreed. Depends on how much we get and when it stops. They won’t be able to clear things until Tuesday, so earliest back to school is Wednesday. The world outside my window is so quiet right now.

2nd graders made beds so they can take their Reading Rescue Pets home. So many happy students this week!

Thinking about National Board certification ? Check out my new article: www.schoollibraryjournal.com/story/go-for...

Go For the Gold: What You Need to Know About National Board Certification

A school librarian provides information and tips for completing the National Board Certification process, which goes beyond what states require of educators and bills itself as the “gold standard.”

Excellent blog post!

If you haven't read @drtlovesbooks.bsky.social's Knowledge Quest blog from today, stop what you're doing & read it. I always appreciate Steve's approach and perspective on various topics, this one is the strongest yet. Bravo, my friend. knowledgequest.aasl.org/reconsiderin...
