@thegoodread LOVE @LMS_United! Amy is amazing & her podcast is the best go-to PD for #schoollibrarians. This episode was great ... just what I needed, when I needed it - starting an after school Maker Monday club soon. Thank you for sharing so many useful resources!!
Happy #CSEdWeek! Thank you to @YouTube for inviting us to curate this week's #YouTubeLearning playlist to help inspire students to explore computer science and #HourOfCode! https://t.co/xC0ILyxDSi
In the first 10 months of 2022, the number of attempts to ban books in libraries and the number of books targeted have already surpassed the record-breaking totals of 2021. Support the right to read for the next generation — #GiveALA on #GivingTuesday. https://t.co/LShCuh6kFd
The current wave of book bans is sending a message to marginalized youth & adults that they don’t belong at the library. If you believe, as we do, that everyone deserves to see themselves reflected in a library’s collections, please #GiveALA#GivingTuesday https://t.co/LShCuh6kFd
4. If you're experiencing censorship or know someone who is, please report it. @OIF is available to assist, and all reports are kept confidential. Even if support isn't needed, it's important to report. https://t.co/vYxrdSSkiX
3. Let your library know that you support #IntellectualFreedom and ask how you can best support their efforts to fight censorship. Join the #UniteAgainstBookBans campaign for tools to organize locally to protect the freedom to read. https://t.co/KVRKMYfVzr
Not everyone can give financially on #GivingTuesday, so here are some other ways to support libraries.
1. Talk with friends and neighbors about how book banning harms communities. Contact local government officials to show your support for the right to read.
