- I greatly respect Abby Johnson, a long-time blogger at Abby the Librarian and former youth librarian and current contributor to American Libraries magazine. In a recent ALSC (Association for Library Service to Children) blog post, she shared some of her perspective on life in libraries during the time of COVID. This brief, supportive and perceptive post is worth the read.
- Amy Steinbauer is a thoughtful blogger at ALSC who brings her experience and honesty to bear when she writes her posts. Her most recent one had encouraging words about those who work with children having very important internal PPE's (people skills, patience and ability to find enjoyment). You can read her hopeful post here.
- Also from the ALSC blog, Liza Purdy looks at what life at her library is like and shares tips on how to re-think our work, especially when we are missing the pre-pandemic joys of working more directly with kids and families. To get a jolt of joy and can-do, read her encouraging post here.
