If you don’t know Bunny Watson, you can’t talk about libraries/librarians & AI. Them’s the rules & this thread explains why

Took @boroughsofthedead.bsky.social Witches of Wall Street tour with its 13 stops (including Trinity Church with the blood red window), in an unintentional group of 13, on Walpurgis Night, and learned it’s always better to have the witches on your side…and a solid prenup

My New Year’s resolution is to read more books, eat more scones, and use more Oxford commas.

Am I the only one who gets a real kick out of citation chains? Reading people's writing and footnotes, and making assessments and notes, finding the sources in the footnotes and reading them yourself, and making more notes? I...love it?

It’s a tale as old as time in THE HOUNDING, my Day 19 and final #Libfaves25 pick. Man thinks girl should smile more. Girl ignores man. Man accuses girl and her sisters of witchcraft. This book was a whole vibe and I enjoyed it start to finish.

Cover of The Hounding by Xenobe Purvis. Background is a painting of green hills with three large, lean dogs—one black and white, one black, and one white and brown.

THE NAMES, my #LibFaves25 Day 9 pick, wrecked me. It was incredible how one choice leads to another and another… What is so remarkable about this story is that it has the same threads, but they are woven together differently with possible narrative.

Cover for The Names by Florence Knapp. Background is a grassy hill with a flower that has three different blooms coming out of a single stem—one white, one orange, one purple

Mỹ Documents (MY DOCUMENTS) is my #LibFaves25 Day 8 pick because I read it months ago and am still thinking about it. Unfortunately it seems to have become even more timely.

Cover of Mỹ Documents a novel by Kevin Nguyen. Background is black and white on the bottom with a black oblast as the focal point. The top part of the background is bright green.

Day 7 of #LibFaves25 goes to the book I couldn’t wait to get my hands on—TO KILL A BADGER. I love this series & these characters. Whenever I want an escape, the MacKilligan sisters, their friends, & their awful father who just won’t die are there to make me laugh.

Cover of the Shelly Laurenston book To Kill a Badger. Background is purple with a white celtic knot in the center and a black and white tiger’s head with mouth open in a roar.

BRING THE HOUSE DOWN is my Day 6 #LibFaves25 pick. When a nepo baby critic gives your show one star & sleeps with you before you find out, the only appropriate response is to redo your show to take him down & send his colleague into a spiral questioning power in art, misogyny, & who gets to be mad.

Cover of Bring the House Down a novel by Charlotte Runcie. The background is pink with red theater curtains, the one on the left tied back with a lit fuse line.

Day 5 of #LibFaves25 is a reminder to never judge a book by its cover because wow if there is anything I hate, loathe, despise, and abominate, it’s the cover of HEART THE LOVER. Honestly still annoyed with how I devoured this achingly perfect read in one day because ugh that cover.

Cover to Heart the Lover a novel by Lily King. It’s an orange background with pink shades eyes that have half daises drawn on the bottom with petals falling and pink shaded lips.

Buckle up, buttercup, because SKY DADDY is my #LibFaves25 Day 4 pick. I was warned and still was not prepared for this book. The premise may not be for everyone (definitely shelve it if you’re flying anytime soon), but the way Kate Folk draws you into and tells this unique story is incredible.

Cover for Sky Daddy a novel by Kate Folk. Background is a blue sky with some clouds and front portion of a passenger airplane

#LibFaves25 Day 3 goes to SO FAR GONE. I picked up this one because I heard it described as a modern day True Grit. It is, and so much more because John Wayne would never, and I mean that in most complimentary way to Rhys Kinnick.

Cover of the book So Far Gone by Jess Walter. The lower part of the cover has a drawing of a wooden glen.

Day 2 of #LibFaves25 is FRIENDS OF THE MUSEUM. This minute by minute accounting of 24 hours of staff-created calamity up to and including a museum’s gala is my favorite kind of messy.

Cover of the book Friends of the Museum by Heather McGowan. The cover is of a Renaissance-esque painting of 4 individuals attacking each other

Day 1 of #LibFaves25 goes to MUTUAL INTEREST, the book Libby reclaimed before I could finish that I immediately turned around and bought because I had to keep reading. Succession but make it queer and Gilded Age with my favorite narrative voice possibly ever.

Book cover for Mutual Interest, a novel by Olivia Wolfgang-Smith. Background is a old timey NYC skyscraper tinted pink

So excited about the expertise in this room (and on Zoom)! Mapping Scholarly Communications in Law Libraries, May 23, 2025

Just want to correct a common error I'm seeing people making: St. Patrick's Day is not the only holiday where it is customary to blast Dropkick Murphys. Labor Day is also an appropriate holiday to blast Dropkick Murphys.

I would argue that Racetrack claimed it first, but will also accept this as a correct answer along with Boots & Kid Blink #pairofnewshoeswithmatchinglaces

Come for the 40s screwball comedy, stay for the 1948 indictment of higher ed that is uncomfortably close to the present. Broadway revival with the entire reading cast please and thank you. #classicstage #goodbyemyfancy

This might be the first positive thing I can point to for ChatGPT, but, more importantly, where does it stand on the Oxford Comma?

This past year I’ve gotten involved with the Friends group for my local library & have attended town council meetings to advocate for funding. It’s horrifying how many people have no idea how publishers are bleeding library budgets dry with ebooks—instead they blame the library.

So many layers to familial legacy, cultural legacy, and the fact that the sisterly bond is a complicated one.

Never had any desire to attend the Thanksgiving Day Parade, but my favorite Thanksgiving thing remains seeing the balloons get inflated the night before.

Spent the past 3 Mondays at The Irish Rep for the New Works Fall Festival. Line up was The Alternative, then The Honey Trap, & tonight with Crocodile Fever. 10/10 would recommend.
