The 7 Types of Rest Librarians Actually Need and How to Get Them
I know many of us are struggling right now. Things are rough out there for libraries and for us as people living in the world. When we think about self-care or rest, most of us default to the physical, things like getting enough sleep, maybe squeezing in a workout, or taking a vacation day. And those things matter.
