Tremendous turnout for Katie Wilson’s inauguration at Seattle City Hall… up the stairs, hanging over the second floor. Streaming now on @komonews dot com.

My latest for @JAMA_current
"Diversity is not just about race and ethnicity. Diversity is about the diversity of the human condition." This Medical News article discusses how the dismantling of DEI efforts could lead to less representative clinical trials. ja.ma/3RdCr72

I think it might be time for an @MedLibAssn Open Forum on our financial future with suggestions coming directly from us #MedLibs on cost saving measures etc. I have some ideas. We may just have to eliminate some things we have like maybe awards etc. – at Houston, TX

If you’re interested in a part-time librarian position that’s fully online, uses EBM skills, and benefits the health of people in Indiana, you should apply for this job. #medlibs hrms.indiana.edu/psc/PH1PRD_…

#Twitter collapse could wipe out vast amounts of 'human knowledge'. Well, no but it's #information revealing who we are. #medlibs use it to share information expertise! I'm writing a piece entitled "How Elon's Twitter Is Changing Medicine" because it is! technologyreview.com/2022/11…

It´s when you see the data coming out of other literature databases that you fully start to appreciate the quality of the bibliographic data provided by MEDLINE. #medlibs

It seemed as if they @NLM_NIH didn’t read the letter as they asked us for suggestions despite mentioned in the letter & wonder why you schedule a listening session 30 min prior to a meeting to finalize things. Listening session, maybe more of a telling session #medlibs

Thank you to our expert speakers for such an intriguing panel: "Taking Action on COVID Lessons Learned"

The #medlibs on the HLS list are happy to learn @ClinicalKey will keep their back files and not do a rolling back file. Thank you to all @ElsevierConnect, librarians and others who communicated to each other to bring a positive resolution.

Library Twitter are a bunch of real librarians who spent an entire pandemic dealing with verbal abuse over masks and so much more. Pass it on.

Replying to @loather
And why is always the library? Where’s the outrage for parks and rec centers, sports facilities, school and college gymnasiums, museum not being opened? Why are our staff and facilities always singled out as being the first sacrifice to failed municipal leadership?

I'm mostly surprised that people would suggest that public libraries and public library workers are not already doing a ton to support the homeless/under housed people in the community. It demonstrates an (embarrassing) lack of understanding of public libraries.

Our 1st hybrid-electric ferry, which will be an Olympic-class vessel similar in design to #Suquamish, is named Wishkah. That’s what the Washington State Transportation Commission chose out of 6 finalists. The new vessel is scheduled to enter service in 2025.
