I already subjected my delightful boyfriend to this rant the other day but I thought that I would share it with all of you! Sharing is nice, isn't it? It all started the other morning at work while I was checking my email and my YA blogs when I came across this post about the … Continue reading NPR, prestige, and women in YA

I probably can't really be an LCARS librarian since I'm stuck in the pre-warp drive for humans early part of the 21st century. Bummer. But if I could be an LCARS librarian I would. Or I would work in Stellar Cartography. Or is there a library on Battlestar Galactica? For now, I'll just stick to reading books, writing, and earth-bound YA librarianship.

I doubt they … Continue reading Why I don’t care too much about doing book-related library programming

I know I said that I wouldn't be writing for a few weeks because I'm so busy, but I just cracked myself up by writing a to do list for myself. For some reason, I planned five library programs over the next two weeks when I have all this stuff going on and will not … Continue reading My awesome to do list
All the things: weddings and Olympics
Apologies for the lack of posting lately. It's Olympic time and I have to watch Usain Bolt run until there's no more competition IN THE WORLD! Also, I have three programs in a row next week (Library Olympics, Henna Tattoos, and Book Babble) and two weddings. One wedding I'm pleased to be playing the piano … Continue reading All the things: weddings and Olympics
