When they give you pens/butcher's paper and tell you to design a library system with no limits...

The raccoons are returning to the libraries. Nature is healing.

This is the dumbest library-related thing I have read in my ten years of reading about library-related things, holy crap:

@Leanne_SLP Ughhh.

Occasionally, but somewhat regularly, I get email responses from clients addressed to me as 'Dear Jenny', even though I always sign off as Jennifer. Does anyone else find this massively weird and also borderline disrespectful? Who slips into nickname territory after one email??

[Jennifer Nash @librarypeeps101]

THERE IS AN INCORRECTLY SPELLED WORD in this tweet about me being dumb. Yes, it's a week later and I've just noticed. Arrrgghh.

My librarian fail for today: a student was looking for 'The Monthly' magazine. I asked her if she new how often new issues were released. I think you could actually hear the crashing sound my brain made as I realised what I'd just said. #duh

Queer Eye but it’s five librarians explaining to a Silicon Valley billionaire how the dismantling of the humanities in favor of STEM is killing democracy.

[Jennifer Nash @librarypeeps101]

Wish I'd taken advantage of an awesome service like this when I was a student!

Twitter Chaucer is my favourite Chaucer.

[Chaucer Doth Tweet @LeVostreGC]

Bookes. A place to feel a newe thinge. A place to confront. A place to learne. A place to escape. A place of enchantemente whan lyfe doth disappoint or wounde. A place to dreame bettir and discover howe to lyve differentlye. Bookes are a promise to the future.

I bet Hanson asked a librarian to find this book for her.

Why I would like to run a social media account for a library, exhibits A-Z: this thread.

So, we found a live bat in our rare book store.

The marine biologist and scuba diver in me says yes!

Is a coral reef a better metaphor for a collection than a tree of knowledge? #InfoOnline19

[James Wilson @UniLibraryJames]

Relationality and the unrealised potential of digital collections with @mikejonesmelb at #InfoOnline19 Discussing connecting collections online and finding ways to display those paths for all to follow @ALIANational @ALIAonline

[Jennifer Nash @librarypeeps101]

@snailx @CWiebrands That was part of its charm! You always felt happily surprised when a web page actually loaded successfully. Sigh, the good old days.

[Jennifer Nash @librarypeeps101]

Also I'm now planning a day trip to the Australian Museum, thanks to @mikejonesmelb #InfoOnline19

[Jennifer Nash @librarypeeps101]

Favourite word of the conference so far, for sure.

"Everything is deeply intertwingled" Ted Nelson via @mikejonesmelb. Intertwingularity is definitely my dream for the content I put (& play with) online - a great linked network within our massive complexity of knowledge. #InfoOnline19

@kathleensme Shushing never left! We regularly get student requests for a bit of librarian-enforced shushing. (You can practice on the quiet carriages of Sydney trains).
