Check out what's happening in our School Libraries. Our school libraries are where we learn, create, and collaborate!

You should buy this book. It’s amazing.

By improving catalogues and collections, U of T librarians aim to be respectful of Indigenous voices https://t.co/XqKWtsfB0f

When Mikayla Redden was studying LIS in university, she was often shocked when she saw how Indigenous materials were catalogued.

I would rather lose books than readers. If we accept the fact that we are in the business of losing books, can we be satisfied with a 90% return rate of books and 100% return rate of students?

Happy International Women's day! Celebrating women authors!

@QSLiNtweets I got this question during my presentation. Can a book with too many pictures negatively impact the student's progression in reading? Learning to read and developing a love of learning are 2 different things. The love of reading must come first.

Fake news reinforces our prejudices. Fear of the other. From

"The library is...a source of skills that go beyond the curriculum. This has never been more apparent than the current global health crisis; with so much information out there the opportunities for fake news...& panic are plentiful." https://t.co/EvJVC7bcUu @Alisonannk

If you are wondering what those plastic bins are, they are book boats. Students love them! #SherbrookeElementarySchool #bookboats #loveofreading

Let's empower students to be creators and innovators rather than just consumers of information. #ETSBbookchat #WeAreETSB #TheInnovatorsMindset

[ETSB Libraries @ETSBLibraries]

So many thought provoking quotes in the book "The innovator's mindset" by #GeorgeCouros. "We forget that if students leave school less curious than when they started, we have failed them." #WeAreETSB #ETSBbookchat #TheInnovatorsMindset

Why Reading Poetry Can Make You a Better Leader by Rosalie Chang https://t.co/noYKzm2wUp

[ETSB Libraries @ETSBLibraries]

Came across this gem while cataloging. Thought it might be a nice picture book for Halloween, but found a beautiful story (in rhyme) about connectedness. What great stories have you surprisingly stumbled upon? Three Tall Trees by David Weale
