Not a teacher nor a drag queen nor a librarian. It's a pastor who spent his time railing against the inclusion of HEARTSTOPPER in a public school library.
Accusations are confessions.
This is *deeply* disturbing.

The American Library Association laid off what I've heard is 15 people this week.
Among them was the director of the Office for Intellectual Freedom. ALA has no OIF anymore.

Experienced this when I was applying actively. It's soul crushing to sit waiting with no answer. Everything in this thread is 💯.
When I was an MLIS student looking for work, I would frequently voice my frustrations to people in the field about the amount of ghosting done by potential employers. And I was always told that I “didn’t understand” because I had never done any hiring in the library world myself.
