Authors @jaelrichardson.bsky.social & Catherine Hernandez talking abt their new books and process.

Amazing to hear the stories behind the stories. Inspirational and fantastic. "A sculpture can't sculpt inside their body" sometimes you need to "use the residue" to distance yourself.

Actual day 1 of #olasc25 (yesterday was day 0). Started the morning with CyberLegends, KnowledgeFlow and ICTC talking about free, Canadian Cyber Security education developed by educators for educators. Now on to the annual Best Bets, one of my favorites. Time to learn about amazing books.

Today is the first day of #OLASC25 and I'm starting the day off at the CFLA-FCAB National forum representing @cdnschoollibrary.bsky.social as part of a panel on the state of library associations in Canada. Friday I'm presenting with @jcasatodd.bsky.social on CSLs upcoming Digital and Media Toolkit.

Just a few minutes away from the Wind and Truth launch at #DSNX24 its packed in here and the mood is electric.

Check out #CanadianSchoolLibraries new board of directors and where we are headed. #TLSky
