Yay! There's a new GLAM Lab in town. The State Library of Victoria is sharing code, datasets, and tutorials through its new SLV LAB site: https://lab.slv.vic.gov.au/ #collectionsasdata #glam #digitalhumanities

Why doesn’t the library accept my donation? 📚
Is it because librarians are book-hating villains drunk on power? #libraries #librarysky #booksky

(Spoiler: No. Library staff love your generosity, but there are behind-the-scenes reasons we can’t take every donation.) 🧵
Guess I will try to be unicorn-like 🦄
