Librarians don’t take a Hippocratic Oath.

But the vast majority of us deeply adhere – both personally and professionally – to the American Library Association’s Bill of Rights, adopted in 1939.

The ALA Bill of Rights is essentially our Hippocratic Oath.

I’ve been here almost three months, so I’m finally eligible to hear the workplace lore that explains why the fuck this place is like this.

Searching for other librarians — is Facebook the only place where there are any real online communities for us? There has to be another way.

Censoring your kid’s face is the corniest shit. You posted the picture to show us you took the kid to the park.

You go through the effort of hiding their face *to show off* that you care about hiding their face.

Just don’t post the picture at all. We were fine not seeing you holding up an emoji.

How it feels not having a bottle of Dry Grape Schweppes in my hand right now.

wildly selfish, unserious, and spoiled rotten. The whole proud non-voter thing is sticking in my teeth like popcorn shells.
And yeah, I got less of a sense that the people I spoke with are *hostile* to Americans and much more of a sense that people think Americans are just kinda spoiled rotten

I always said I don’t have a dream job because I want to simply lie in the sunlight like a cat.

Now that the weather is nice, I have scheduled sit-in-the-backyard time at my new job.

close enough tbh

Shoutout to the 4 train and the 4 train ONLY for understanding the assignment during tonight’s evening commute.

gives me complicated feelings when I watch people chronicle every one of 47’s controversies when they spent the last half of 2024 telling people not to vote for Harris.

I’m going to have a Master’s degree in December.

I just keep thinking back to that Spring 2023 semester when I dropped one class and failed the other and thought there was no way I could complete it.

December still feels worlds away.

The radiator is drying me the hell out every night, and no amount of water bottle refills is un-chapping my lips.

Further reports claim that they are, in fact, not “about that life”.
Reports are that the CIA is washed. One source told me it "has no motion."

Life works real funny. I was worried about taking this job before I did, and I’m actually enjoying it WAY more than I could’ve imagined.

Funny things happen when I don’t get what I want.

Me, a teen librarian: *scrolling through Bookriot and Goodreads*

The teens at my library: reading CupcakKe lyrics out loud.
