A1.To create a welcoming space #libraries can use rainbow signage, #pride flags, have staff wearing rainbow lanyards & theme #LGBTQIA #book displays. These are examples from Reykjavik City Library (left) and Melbourne’s Kathleen Syme Library (right) #AusLibChat

My favourite library produced podcast is uts student hacks (our student podcasters are more insightful than you can reasonably expect). Otherwise it's Stuff the British Stole.

Never did I imagine at the beginning of our parenting journey that my wife and I would have developed a single look that says ‘I just experienced a 20 minute monologue about slime and I need a moment to regroup’.

I handed my 11 year old a book I got her from the library this morning and she looked at it and said ‘oh thanks, is it peer-reviewed?’… my job here is done!

My dad has been retired for a week and a half and so far I feel like most of our conversations have been a variation of - can you pick your grandchild up from school and I’ll swing by and fix your tech issues. I feel this is really going to work out well!

Great to see you again! #AusLibChat
I haven't been to one of these in a while, but this is such an important topic. #AusLibChat teapawt.net/aliangac/status/143519…
I bought 30 piping hot falafels at lunch and put them in the work fridge to cool, leaving the work fridge wafting garlic whenever you open it, and yet, not a single thank you!

I know that I bought bananas in the shopping last week and with every day that goes by I am getting more and more concerned about the moment I actually find them 😬
