The Library is devastated to learn of the passing of Dolly Parton, a music legend and titan of children's literacy. Her Imagination Library program has earned multiple Library Literacy Awards and, in 2018, she visited us to donate its 100 millionth book to our collection and host a story time. 🦋❤️

Do you have an artist that when their song comes on - you instantly relax and enjoy it? For me it’s always been Joni Mitchell - so amazing - greatest lyricist and musician I can think of

"For the first time, you've been hearing internal murmurings from Reform, going, 'Well, maybe Nigel is a bit of a problem' or 'maybe Nigel isn't the right man to take us into the election'." Could Farage's by-election gamble cost him everything? @lewisgoodall.com

Just a reminder that Putin and friends made a lot of excited noise about how Western Europe would be freezing to death and using horses instead of cars without Russian oil, just a couple of years ago. Play silly games…

Bethan's Rock is a small grey stone on display at Poole Museum in Poole, England. It was donated to the museum in 2019 by a five-year-old girl named Bethan, and it has since attracted significant attention on social media and become the museum's most famous object. - Wikipedia

Physicist Rosalyn Yalow co-invented a super-sensitive test (radioimmunoassay) that uses tiny amounts of radioactive tags to detect exact levels of insulin in blood & won the 1977 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine (the 2nd woman ever to win in this category). She died #OTD in 2011. #WomenInSTEM
A black-and-white historical photograph capturing Nobel Prize-winning medical physicist Dr. Rosalyn Sussman Yalow (1921–2011) at work in her laboratory, projecting a mood of warm competence and focused intellect. Dr. Yalow is posed angled toward her crowded workbench, smiling warmly and directly at the camera. She wears a crisp white laboratory coat over a dark blouse accented by a circular pendant necklace. In her right hand, she deftly holds a long, slender glass volumetric pipette, mid-experiment, while her left hand rests steadily near a small glass beaker on the white countertop. The mid-20th-century laboratory setting is dense with scientific equipment, featuring multi-tiered wooden shelves packed with labeled glass reagent bottles, vials, and chemical containers. Boxes of laboratory supplies, including a Kimble brand box, and containers of test tubes cluster in the foreground. This image carries profound historical significance, representing a trailblazing woman in STEM whose co-invention of the revolutionary radioimmunoassay (RIA) technique transformed modern endocrinology and diagnostic medicine, ultimately earning her the 1977 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.

Orban's inability to prevent last year's Pride protests—attended by 300k despite being banned—was a turning point in his authoritarian grip of the country. Queer people are always leading the fight against authoritarianism, as we are often its first targets. Never cower to fear.
