I have read about these days on the stone tablets.

"👂 carefully to how ordinary people remember their lives under socialism isn’t an endorsement; it’s an effort to understand what they valued + why. Those memories, often complex + sometimes contradictory,... remind us that the past is never as simple as our ideologies make it out to be." [3/3]

"Even though these societies faced serious political + economic challenges, their social ideals of equality, solidarity, + collective care remain relevant to us in 2025. They remind us that success isn’t only abt material wealth or technology, but about how we choose to care for one another." [2/3]

So glad to hear this!

I’m sure, but having a mandate or a budget sure hasn’t prevented this current administration from rerouting funding toward more destructive ends :-)

'It's a lost map!'
'Where did you find it?'
'In the Map Drawer, in the Map Room of the Map Library'.
OH is seriously thinking about doing a talk on data and discovery entitled 'why we keep biscuits in the biscuit tin'. Seems appropriate.

In small communities, especially, #FriendsOfTheLibrary groups can make a huge difference in promoting the library and also enhancing community spirit. Join the fun!!!

I forgot to include the link!

I'm also developing a proposal structure as we look forward to our collaborative spring publication. I think this is a good set of questions :)
