Friday afternoon reminder to not empty your inbox at the expense of someone else's. I'll be going somewhere with a POOL this weekend, so my mind is already elsewhere. Yours may be too. Schedule that email for people's work times, or just send it later, or DM someone instead. Have a weekend. Have a life.

#books #bookban #libraries + Tip:
“…if you really can't figure out which political party or which politician to vote for, just ask if they're on the side of libraries” ~ @neilhimself
Neil Gaiman is a fierce supporter of libraries. The author of American Gods, Neverwhere, Good Omens, The Sandman, Coraline, and so many more has had a lifelong love affair with reading. And he credits librarians for fostering his curiosity about books and learning at a young age. Gaiman spoke with I Love Libraries recently about libraries, comic books, book banning in the U.S., movies, and more.
1) Don't ban books
2) Don't waste educators' time with book bans
3) Don't make decisions about books without reading them
4) Don't fall for OpenAI's interface: ChatGPT is not the kind of thing you can sensibly ask for information
