#ElemtarySchoolLibrary #LibraryJoy This week we discussed book care. Our 3rd graders took part in a crime scene investigation involving damaged library books. #Fun&Learning

ALA stands with library workers, readers, and communities working to keep books available. Our work helps ensure everyone can seek information and make their own reading choices. Your gift makes that work possible. Helps us protect the freedom to read at ala.org/protect. #BannedBooksWeek

#SupportSchoolLibraries #SupportSchoolLibrarians Support kids’ right to read

Sneaky low key #BannedBookWeek programming at our ES- just a book book display (including many of their favorite books) & bookmarks = massive engagement! 👏 Lots of questions & OUTRAGE! How dare someone try to ban their favorite books/authors. Love our #LibraryKids 🫶

#TLSkyChat looking forward to this & all the great ideas that come from it! 🫶📚

From a school librarian

A story about a Nashville charter school removing numerous books from its school libraries has been circulating widely, but...there is no verified source on this story at all. Here's a deep dive into the work of checking your sources and why ban counts fall short. bookriot.com/how-to-check...

When politicians & organized groups ban books from school libraries, they erase voices, restrict access to knowledge, & deny students the opportunity to understand people & experiences different from their own. Families & communities are the guardrails. So where is our collective local outrage?

#LibraryStrong #SupportSchoolLibraries #SupportSchoolLibrarians #FreedomtoRead I highly recommend watching the thelibrariansfilm.bsky.social if you haven’t seen it yet!

Happy National #ReadaBookDay Can’t wait to share this book with our students! @jeffkinney.bsky.social #SpookyReads

Such an excellent & important film. A must see if you haven’t seen it yet. #SupportSchoolLibraries #SupportSchoolLibrarians

❤️ hoping to finish my current read!

#LibraryJoy #ReadingJoy School libraries & librarians create reading joy, & life-long readers & learners. They CAN help solve the “youth reading crisis” if properly supported & funded. #FundSchoolLibraries #FundSchoolLibrarians #SupportSchoolLibraries #SupportSchoolLibrarians

Here is one near the new flowers! #MonarchButterflies #NativePlants

#SomethingGood #Gardening I’m so glad I added these late blooming native plants because I found 7 monarch caterpillars in the garden! The plan is to add lots more plants!

#KidsRead #SchoolLibrary #LibraryJoy #LibraryKids Some of the 3rd graders that participated in our family summer book club have decided to create their own book club. They’ve picked a book & asked their parents to buy it for them. The parents now have a book club text chain. 🫶

Got this treasure at the #NationalBookFestival & I was able to attend a session by the author! Can’t wait to dig into this book! #SchoolLibrarian
