librarian by day: June 2011
http://librarianbyday.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Reviews and other babble about teen literature. Thursday, June 30, 2011. But what was this conference like, you're wondering? ARCs went missing during the conference. In happier topics, the Printz reception was amazing. All the speeches were just funny and touching and thoughtful, in different ways. Lucy Christopher talked about how Stolen. Marcus Sedgwick made a funny, extemparaneous talk about how his research factored into Revolver. Janne Teller gave three speeches in one to discuss how Nothing. On Fr...
librarian by day: Holy unexpected return, Batman!
http://librarianbyday.blogspot.com/2013/06/holy-unexpected-return-batman.html
Reviews and other babble about teen literature. Wednesday, June 05, 2013. Holy unexpected return, Batman! Yeah, I know I kind of fell off the face of the earth when it came to blogging. But there were reasons. I wrote a genre guide to historical fiction. Which meant I read part of over 700 books in just over a year. I immediately followed that up by serving on the Printz and reading a ton. But after I read GreenBean TeenQueen's great post on After Committee Reading Slump. And Abby the Librarian. Welcome ...

http://librarianbyday.blogspot.com/2011/09/review-all-these-things-ive-done.html

by my shelf: In memory of Matthew Shepard, October 6, 1998
http://laura-bymyshelf.blogspot.com/2008/10/in-memory-of-matthew-shepard-october-6.html
Monday, October 6, 2008. In memory of Matthew Shepard, October 6, 1998. The Laramie Project: Tectonic Theater. And About Face Theatre. Labels: About Face Theatre. I saw a performance of The Laramie project a few years ago and it was very moving. October 8, 2008 at 6:38 PM. This reading was incredibly affecting.

Friday, October 24, 2008. Make sure it adds value. I drove 4 of us to the RA 2.0 (Adult Reading Round Table) program the other day in Schaumburg and I knew all of the jargon (thnx ELL! 160;Having lived much of this info in the whirlwind of ELL, it was good to hear some additional applications for some of these tools and also be reminded that this is where we are right now (and we're all.

Friday, January 16, 2009. Top Five Nonfiction 2008. Choosing our top ten titles this year ( Lynn's list. Was so hard.

Miss Hootie Hoo: She Has a Spiderman Bookbag and I am Here For It!
http://www.misshootiehoo.com/2014/09/she-has-spiderman-bookbag-and-i-am-here.html
Monday, September 1, 2014. She Has a Spiderman Bookbag and I am Here For It! So, this weekend, I've been hanging out at my aunt's house. While there, her grand-daughter, my "cousin-niece" Dootie has entertained me with just about anything she could think of; including, but not limited to, her singing, her new swimsuit, and the board game Cranium, which she referred to as "The Brain Game". Can I show you my book bag! I told her, and off she ran to grab it. Look at that face! That's great, Dootie! Now, I k...
Bookends: Savvy by Ingrid Law (Penguin, 2008)
http://mibookends.blogspot.com/2009/01/savvy-by-ingrid-law-penguin-2008.html
Tuesday, January 6, 2009. Savvy by Ingrid Law (Penguin, 2008). Posted by Cindy Dobrez and Lynn Rutan. I LOVED this book and hope it gets something at Newbery time. An Indie book store owner shared her arc with me and I must confess that it got lost in the shuffle. I ended up choosing it for review for the NJ State Library and I didn't want it to end. What a great family! I agree with you. I can't wait to read what Law has up next. Happy New Year. January 6, 2009 at 3:12 PM. January 6, 2009 at 6:54 PM.

Sunday, October 19, 2008. Ain't Nothing But a Man: My Quest to Find the Real John Henry by Scott Reynolds Nelson. This is the kind of nonfiction that inspires and motivates and is fun too!

Miss Hootie Hoo: Pieces of Programming: Otaku Training Day
http://www.misshootiehoo.com/2014/08/pieces-of-programming-otaku-training-day.html
Wednesday, August 6, 2014. Pieces of Programming: Otaku Training Day. Teens are interesting creatures. They have absolutely no interest in you until you're not paying them any attention. I've learned to use this to my advantage. Occasionally, they get me too. I am not an Anime or Manga enthusiast. However, my teens don't care that I don't like anime. What they saw in my indifference, I've found, was an opportunity to teach. So I decided to exploit it. As the weeks rolled on, I began to gently drop little...

Librarian Boredom
Wednesday, June 23, 2010. Remember when I was gonna read some classics and post about them? Oh, back in October? Right now, it feels like I can only function a week at a time. Today is the last day of school, so the full specter of summer reading is nearly here. I am hoping I'll find more time and inspiration to post, but we'll see. It's hard to balance real life, work and the internet. Tuesday, October 13, 2009. One of the most commonly quoted examples of this is Charlotte's. Without prompting from teac...

Library Buzz
Monday, August 9, 2010. Competency #7 - Internet. Reluctant readers in elementary schools sometimes need a boost to start reading. I have found this website to be a positive influence for children to get interested in books. If a child hears (and sees) and book that he/she likes, it might spark them to look for another book by that same author. A link to the website: http:/ www.storylineonline.net/. Posted by Gay Bumpas.

Librarian Burnout | what we talk about when we talk about burnout
What we talk about when we talk about burnout. Who Owns These Words. Burnout among librarians is a real thing, and it’s a problem. Sharing stories about burnout with a supportive community is one way of coping with the stress burnout can cause. Burnout can be isolating and upsetting and dehumanizing, and it may help you feel better to know others in your field have similar experiences and feelings. What could we do differently? The mission of this blog project is threefold:. 2) Analysis and context.
