Insight into one of many ways libraries adapt to the needs of people. As a single mom when Iz was this young and working on my grad school degree, this would have been a game changer. I had to use coffee house wifi to get work done with an infant. Can you imagine the difference?

I suffered a serious setback in August with my mental health & trauma healing. I’ve been working hard to move past it, but it’s been a struggle just being. Let alone active in my community. This break, I am thankful for being here, present with my family, & time for relearning.

I married up. 👏🏻👏🏻 Halloween: Teacher Edition 🧡 Mr. Bongiorno’s costume is 100% handmade and took a year to complete. 🖤 Me? I’m repping basic Target gear and a headband from my faves in GSA Club.

How do you teach 1,200 students how to create a digital portfolio using @AdobeExpress ? We use a live teams meeting! Every student will have a digital portfolio to share for internships, jobs, or EOY Showcase. #AdobeEduCreative #futureready @FCSCTAE @FCS_InstrTech #mieexpert

Thankful we had a teacher work day today so I could finish our 2nd floor bookshelf remodel. I separated the manga from graphic novels and added an end cap for our DC vs Marvel display. It’s not 100% done, but it’s so close!

Intellectual Freedom in Georgia is under attack. As President of @glma , as an educator, and as a parent, I urge my fellow educators to take action now and contact legislators asking them to support freedom to read in schools. @OIF @aasl #FReadom

Did you know that as a school librarian, not only do we support the state standards for literacy (and often other content), but also have our own standards we follow? From the SLEI to AASL to ISTE to Future Ready, we meet the needs of all learners #tlchat

I was facilitating PD for some amazing educators in south Florida this week. When we scheduled, I was initially concerned about what I’m allowed to say, share, etc. My heart was filled with so much joy seeing these stickers all over classrooms! #librarytwitter

You can’t honor National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month and pull books that validate LGBTQ youth experiences at the same time. Guess who our most vulnerable youth are?

It takes a lot to stand up for what’s right. Rockstar librarian @abmack33 has worked hard to protect the freedom to read and now she is being attacked. Please help defend her against these attacks, and you help defend ALL librarians from defamation!

Did you know that instead of teaching 30 or even 120 students, I teach 1,450 students throughout the year? I also work with teachers on literacy and technology professional development so that their students benefit. Media specialists deserve $3,000 too! @AngelikaForGA #GaLibChat

I voted today for our students. I will continue to vote for them to have the freedom to read, to learn, to think. I will vote for our students to be seen and heard, even when society tries to silence them. Teaching is political, because I care about 𝒂𝒍𝒍 of our students.

Our school library contains roughly 2,500 physical books separated on two floors. Our 2nd floor is a work in progress, but it’s my favorite. It houses all of our games, manga, graphic novels, and MakerSpace. Q - Would you separate the manga from graphic novels? Why? #tlchat
