10- tell an author or illustrator you adore what they mean to you, through their website, social media, or a book review. Show them that they, and not AI, are true artists that cannot be replaced

Let us all use this moment as another opportunity to raise our voices, to demand representation for all. Let us not forget that elected officials work for us. All of us. Carla Hayden, thank you for your dedication and service to our country. I was so proud to have you as my librarian.

Readiatrician @readiatrician.bsky.social · 09/05/2025

When they come for libraries, they come for all of us. They come for our access to our past and the words we need to imagine the future. They come for the truth. They come to control. We can’t let this happen. A librarian should never be limited in their ability to welcome all of us

I am heartbroken at her termination from the position. Not just because she was the first woman to hold the post, or because she was the first Black woman, or because she was an actual librarian, which has not always been the case for holders of the position. I’m sad for us, as Americans.

Readiatrician @readiatrician.bsky.social · 09/05/2025

She displayed our library’s treasure with pride. She showed us the wealth of knowledge and history that we can all access. She promoted inclusive literature and made sure that every one of us had a place in the library because the Library of Congress belongs to ALL of us

Readiatrician @readiatrician.bsky.social · 09/05/2025

Carla Hayden is an inspiration. As the Librarian of Congress, she devoted herself to making it truly the people’s library- a representative and safe space for all Americans. Her choices for literature ambassadors, her programs, her social media and public interactions were all library joy.

Libraries are incredible: part 5 My library has saved me over $350 this year alone and over $18,500 in my lifetime!!

Readiatrician @readiatrician.bsky.social · 10/04/2025

Libraries are incredible: part 4 My library has DVDs, DVD players, and Roku to borrow! Each Roku is loaded with subscriptions to Netflix, HBO, Hulu, Paramount (with Showtime), Disney+, Kanopy, hoopla, and Starz, plus free content like Pluto, Peacock, and PBS.

Libraries are incredible: part 3 My library has gone blood pressure monitoring devices that can be borrowed for up to three weeks!!

Readiatrician @readiatrician.bsky.social · 08/04/2025

libraries are incredible: part 2 My library offers high quality, full color printing services for a fraction of the cost of print shops. Last week I made 36 copies of a 50 page document, saved hundreds of dollars, and was helped by the kindest people #forourlibraries #nationallibraryweek

Readiatrician @readiatrician.bsky.social · 07/04/2025

libraries are incredible: part 1 My library has specialty bakeware!! Need to make an Elmo cake just one time? A snowman?? A fancy Bundt??? My library’s got you. Why spend money on expensive pans you will use once when you can borrow them for free?? #forourlibraries #nationallibraryweek

Readiatrician @readiatrician.bsky.social · 07/04/2025

It’s national library week!! Follow me all week for reasons to love your library!! I hope you’ll join me in sharing too. Post with the tags #forourlibraries and #nationallibraryweek @amlibraryassoc.bsky.social is a good place to start for resources on how to support your library today!

Happy #MatchDay to those opening envelopes today. But to them, and anyone who didn’t match this year- an email does not define you. A location doesn’t define you. You can still be the doctor to want to be, where you want to be. You were strong enough to get this far and that doesn’t change ❤️

Readiatrician @readiatrician.bsky.social · 18/03/2025

All year long we write down little things that were fun small memories- quotes, little jokes, etc- and then we keep them in an envelope, no peeking until NYE and we read them aloud to end the year

#kidlit friends, teachers and librarians- does anyone have experience with book vending machines? I need advice!

President Trump's executive order to eliminate the Institute of Museum & Library Services would have disastrous effects for communities nationwide. We call on all Americans who value reading & learning to reach out to their elected leaders. Read ALA's full response: www.ala.org/news/2025/03...

ALA response to White House assault on IMLS
To dismiss the mission of an agency that advances opportunity and learning is to dismiss the aspirations and everyday needs of millions of Americans. And those who will feel that loss most keenly live in rural communities. 
As seedbeds of literacy and innovation, our nation’s 125,000 public, school, academic and special libraries deserve more, not less support. Libraries translate 0.003% of the federal budget into programs and services used by more than 1.2 billion people every year.

Sometimes self care is polishing your nails or curling up with a good book. Sometimes self care is a mammogram. Today, I’m doing all three. If you are due for your routine health screening, schedule it today!

I applied for a grant completely outside Reach Out and Read. I applied to two different organizations thinking I’d get neither but the first came through! The second is announced mid March 🤞Message me for more info!

Readiatrician @readiatrician.bsky.social · 20/02/2025

The plan is to give out the books, track reading with a survey/chart audits, and then start book clubs/discussions with patients and parents, the grant will cover books and snacks. I’m also making a directory of books by topic so all providers can easily match the book to the patient who needs it.

School age kids and teens need books that represent them now more than ever, and they need to see reading as a joy I’ve been buying older kids books out of pocket UNTIL TODAY!! 🤩 This grant is going to fund some big book purchases, so comment below on the titles I need! #kidlit #weneeddiversebooks

BIG NEWS!!! I got a grant for MG & YA books to stock in my office!! My site is a Reach Out and Read office, so books for kids under 5 are covered, but I hate that we motivate kids to read and then stop building on that momentum as they become independent readers.

If you have a huge TBR pile from library book displays and online posts celebrating Black history month and feel like February is too short to read them all, I have great news!! You can read books by Black authors and illustrators ALL YEAR LONG!!!
