I acknowledge the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nations and all Traditional Owners for keeping the land so pristine for so long, and I also thank the Knowledge Holders, because knowledge is a burden to carry, and a privilege, and I am grateful.

Re-name to “book loan room”

No #Librarian at coal face means students have no-win. Reminds me of #Healesville Public Library Au

However Council Staff might have some wins by having “redeployed” or “promoted” librarians embedded on teams

#Librarians have unique skills to share

A key factor is “who might be responsible for tackling it”. Notice how silence and disconnection are modelled and normalised. Community being groomed to ignore. This ‘de-escalation’ backfires by creating taboos. Little gets solved. Mis & Dis perpetuates.
