Great to see the thoughtful attention and study this topic is getting on a national scale. Opioid misuse in libraries is a grim reality for so many of our patrons and the impacts on our staff who serve them is huge. Looking forward…https://t.co/SQ5bBWct3F https://t.co/VS7CjZURC7

I was honored to sing the National Anthem with 17 new US citizens at the Naturalization ceremony at the Burien Library. Our director gave a moving speech about how libraries support democracy. #libraries #kcls #citizenship https://t.co/cbBbz5EIL1

Our regional librarians are implementing a year-long intentional deep dive into identifying community needs, analyzing the work we’re doing through an outcomes-based lens, and looking for ways we can do our work better through community partnerships...yet…https://t.co/rF1vhEsCYs

Not sure what got into me, I actually enjoyed playing in the snow with my kids today! #snowhater #diditanyway ❄️ https://t.co/El7YQR3hcZ

@librarianbikes (And this is coming from someone who totally f-ing hates snow!)

[mathik1 @mathik1]

@librarianbikes Know what you mean, but snow’s a force of nature that exists if we want it or not; homelessness is a human created problem that doesn’t have to exist, as is the idea of business over safety. Blame humans, not snow ❄️

.@ALALibrary now’s the time to apply what was preached and turn that DEI lens inward. There’s no reason not to believe @AprilHathcock & other PoC & to take their clearly laid out paths to accountability seriously.

[mathik1 @mathik1]

.@ALALibrary the increased # of sessions on DEI and having @RobinDiAngelo speak on #whitefragility is a *start* to the deeper institutional work that needs to be done to address what happened to @AprilHathcock & other PoC at #alawm19

2/2 Dr. Peters on #IndigenistEndeavors “We have the answers. We are what we need. We just need support in getting the resources to do what we need to do.” Spoke volumes that @ALALibrary pres @loidagarciafebo introduced and stayed 4 the whole program #alamw19

[mathik1 @mathik1]

“A Native Perspective on Trauma: Bridging Past, Present & Possibilities” was probably the most important session of #alamw19 - Dr. Wendy Peters spoke not only of #CulturallyInformedTrauma but of how libraries can support healing 1/2

[mathik1 @mathik1]

I admit, hearing @RickSteves speak at #alamw19 about #TravelAsAPoliticalAct is probably my favorite part of the conference
