Hello everybody, Texas librarian crashing the Cali party even though I’m currently in the car on the way to Nashville, excited to hear from everyone #CALIBchat
I’m a retired CA TL, Rutgers part-time instructor of preservice librarians, a #4CSLA Past Prez, #aaslbestwebsites committee chair, #calibchat Here’s my “digital business card”
A1: I'm having fun with family, actually eating lunch at restaurants, and catching up on my to-be-read pile. Reading some professional things too like Passionate Readers by @pernilleripp#CALIBchat
A1 Reading good booms #Refugee by @AlanGratz is phenomenal Spending time with family, Libcamps to recharge the librarian battery, and self care sessions in meditation, art, and pedicures when possible #CALIBchat
A1: Going ⛺️ for a week and I’m bringing a big stack of books I’ve been itching to read...and a new journal so I can teach myself to relax and focus on the “now” #calibchat
One of the best parts of being retired is rarely using my alarm to wake up. I still wake up pretty early, but it FEELS so much better without the alarm! #calibchat
Definitely have Google Level 2 certification on the list, but I'm also working right now with BreakoutEDU as an official game designer. :-) So I've been focused on that. But also trolling Pinterest for new library ideas for 18/19 #calibchat
A1: Travel, travel, travel! Taking a class abroad, visiting my friends and chasing that travel bug into exhaustion. Plus having a blast writing curriculum for our soon to be innovation space!! #CALIBCHAT
A2: I read Passionate Readers already. Currently reading Disrupting Thinking: Why How We Read Matters. Then, Intention by @amyburvall@WickedDecent#CALIBchat
I have a long list of things to look into.... the list grows before I can make is shorter #CALIBchat super excited about @cospaces_edu and @BookCreatorApp updates

@jane_librarian, @cospaces_edu, @BookCreatorApp
Thanks so much for coming, Sam! Where is your class abroad? Writing curriculum isn't restore, but it will definitely contribute to A2, growing :-) #calibchat
A3: Probably my favorite read of the summer (so far) is Front Desk by @kellyyanghk It allowed me to walk in a different perspective and also see a young person raise her voice for change. #CALIBchat
A3: You Bring the Distant Near, as I mentioned before. Also the graphic novel Brazen as EXCELLENT. Biographies of various "brazen" women. It will send you to learn more abut each of them once their story is done! #calibchat
A3: Also, if you haven't read Ghost Boys by @jewell_p_rhodes, you need to! It explores #blacklivesmatter and police brutality on a middle grades level. Very powerful #CALIBchat
A1 #CALIBCHAT I've been reading and cleaning. Cleaning doesn't sound like fun, but we have found almost $900 dollars worth of gift cards and movie tix. Most of it was in forgotten about emails.
A2: I read Passionate Readers already. Currently reading Disrupting Thinking: Why How We Read Matters. Then, Intention by @amyburvall@WickedDecent#CALIBchat
A3: Some books I have enjoyed that may still be available on https://t.co/kGnvc3rL6l are "I Am Still Alive" (thriller set in Alaska), The Witch of Willow Hall" (historical fiction) , "Out of the Blue" (angels in Scotland!), "Rust & Stardust" (based on a true story) #calibchat
