Thank you, @MaineRRU. From ever-poignant @JReynoldsbooks to sharing our #learn17 experiences w. #ReadAcrossAmericaWeek w. @savannahsesh to reflecting on Wabanaki studies, today was a gift. #RRU2023
Librarians are still feeling the energy from the message Jason Reynolds delivered at this year's Reading Round-Up. He challenged us to approach our work with humility, create moments of intimacy, and express gratitude for the young people in our lives. @JasonReynolds83 @MaineRRU
“you have to learn the difference between someone who is vulnerable and open to information and someone who is just a wall that won’t hear you. You just can’t spend your energy on the second type of people.” Brianne Lolar #RRU2023
“That’s why it’s so important to have many eyes, many voices in the room… the experiences of marginalized people are varied, often difficult, and deserve to be respected. Culture matters.” —Vicky Smith, Reading and Writing Reviews #RRU2023
"This is a place for you. We would like you to be here. We are happy you're here." School and Public Library Partnerships #RRU2023
“It might require moving? Sorry.” Cooking Up Programs #RRU2023
"Accepting incremental progress can be a key to success." #RRU2023 Revamping Read Across America
“Reading emotions from a person’s eyes” -Social and Emotional Learning Kits #rru2023
Session one, Play Me A Story: "If birdseed could talk, what would it say?" #RRU2023
“Oh, how fortunate we are that [children] exist.” Jason Reynolds #RRU2023
Stories are not the most important work that we do. Because what we do isn’t story work. It’s human work” -Jason Reynolds #RRU2023
“It’s important that we see every single person. Because every single person is important to our lives in some way.” -Jason Reynolds #RRU2023
I am ridiculously excited for @MaineRRU on Thursday. I've been several times as a classroom teacher. It's been virtual since 2020, and now I'm a #schoollibrarian AND @JasonReynolds83 is the keynote speaker!! 📚🤯😁 #booknerd
Tomorrow is the big day! See everyone bright and early, and don't forget to use the hashtag: #RRU2023 throughout the conference! 🥳
Psst...guess what? If you've signed up for RRU this year...you're automatically entered into a raffle to win a cute lil mug!! Wait...what? You haven't signed up yet? BETTER HURRY! 👀 maine-msl.libcal.com/calendar/10791… #RRU2023
