The ideological purge of historical narratives at National Park Service sites along with the decimation of the staff means the history will be sanitized but the bathrooms won’t be. #RBMS25

This was my first time coming in person to the RBMS Conference since the pandemic, and a couple of people came up today to say that some of the work I’ve done with this organization has been meaningful and important to them, and gosh that felt good. As much as my introverted heart is capable of feeling energized and in community on a social occasion, I really felt that today. #RBMS25

There’s only another 15 minutes left in the Beinecke open house but I think that’s just enough time for me to crack it. #RBMS25

Getting a tour of the art library at Yale, deigned by modernist architect Paul Rudolph, including it’s distinctive “Paprika” carpeting. For a recent renovation, an unfaded section of carpeting was identified to bring it back to its full eye-searing intensity. https://onlineexhibits.library.yale.edu/s/Haas/page/carpet

The way I am nerding out at this example MARC record for a community cookbook from the Schlesinger Library... #rbms25

It’s wonderfully liberating to hear somebody present about a worthwhile project that didn’t really go anywhere because she got a better job halfway through and the library was too understaffed to keep it going. It was still interesting and worth hearing about. #relatable #RBMS25
