We found this great image in a recent donation to the OGS Archives at the OGS Library in Bellville, OH. The image was taken in 1900 in Kent, Ohio.

Charlotte’s Web, by EB White. You are a kind spider who befriends a naive piglet, and concocts a plan to weaponize human religious beliefs against your friends owners so they won’t kill and eat him. 5 of 5 library cats! 🐈 🐈 🐈 🐈 🕷️

Tress of the Emerald Sea, by Brandon Sanderson. You are a young window washer who falls in love with a Duke’s son, who promptly disappears across the terribly dangerous non-liquid oceans of your planet. 3 library cats 🐈 🐈 🐈

My friend Emily Drabinski is the incoming president of the American Library Association. She has been named by the Montana State Library Commission as the reason they are withdrawing Montana from the American Library Association. This is bullshit.

The ALA issued a statement about this which is all about ALA. Emily deserves our support. Please join me in signing this letter in solidarity with her and her work. Thank you.

You do NOT have to be an ALA member or work in a library to sign this petition. However, if you align with Emily's politics (outlined in the letter), then please sign it. https://bit.ly/emilydrabinski @bookstodon

My favorite browser : " Extension"

Allows you to create a list of where you have a card (borrowing privileges), and then displays ebook / audiobook availability when you visit certain book pages.

It's very cool and has saved me alot of money (borrowing vs buying).
