While we don't have answers, we do want to share some excellent resources and thoughtful blog posts we came across this weekend and hope they help you get centered and find a few solutions to your work from home.
- The above graphic is based on a screen capture from Tessa Michaelson Schmidt's 4/17/20 Friday FAQs update that she received in an email attachment. She shared it and it's worth sharing again (thanks to Wina Mortenson of Galesville (WI) Public Library who re-did it as a PDF)
- Jamie Matzcak who works from her home in Green Bay for WI Valley Library Service (based in Wausau) shares great tips in this TV interview: Working From Home: Fixing Your Workspace to Improve Efficiency and Wellness from Monday 4/20/20
- The always wise Karen Jensen who blogs at Teen Librarian Toolbox for SLJ has a moving and honest assessment of what the past month has been like for her and for her teens: It's Okay Not to Be Okay in a Pandemic. She has two outstanding resources to share in this post as well.
- Rose Hopkins-LaRocco shares some important tips when you are managing staff remotely during this time. Her thoughtful, supportive approach is a must-read in Managing From Afar on the ALSC blog.
- Finally, Jennifer Brown also shares supportive information about the similarities and approaches between your live programming and virtual programming in her post on the ALSC blog: Transitioning to Virtual Programming: You Already Know the Basics.. It's some of the calmest advice I've seen shared.
Be well.
