Very excited to be interning with KRIA as a content analyst and now also as part of the media outreach team! If you're intending in the Icelandic constitution and/or #participatorydemocracy check us out 💙

Very disappointing, 17 years on and irish children and young people still being let down. School librarians are extremely important, if not crucial, particularly in DEIS schools.

"what makes the Icelandic experiment interesting is the degree to which feedback was accepted from the general public, and the fact that the entire process was entirely transparent" - Smari McCarthy, candidate for Iceland’s 2011 Constitutional Assembly.

Learning so many amazing things I never knew about Icelandic culture through my work at KRIA, including Saumaklúbbur! Might need to start a "sewing club" with some of my friends 😉

Imagine what could be achieved if every school had a library AND a librarian?? The JCSP libraries are wonderful places. Every school needs one.

Gjörningaklúbburinn is an art collective working in all mediums and subjects. Watch the collective perform a ritual at a Constitutional Society of Iceland civic event here; youtube.com/watch?v=kK8kGr… #Icelandicconstitution #ritual #Gjörningaklúbburinn

We very much welcome the Committee's recognition of the need for a much-improved school library service in all areas of education - and in particular the proposed expansion of the JCSP Library Project #SchoolLibrariesMatter #SchoolLibrariansMatter

Published in 2018, ”The New Icelandic Constitution” book documents the proposed constitution alongside a foreword by Vigdís Finnbogadóttir and a historical introduction by Þorvald Gylfason. #Ísland #Stjórnarskrá

A volcano has erupted in Iceland near the capital Reykjavik, the Icelandic Meteorological Office (IMO) said as live images on local media showed lava spewing out of a fissure in the ground | Read more: bit.ly/3PY3UHw

Ridiculous and upsetting behaviour but rest assured librarians will not stand for the fascist ideology of censorship and book-banning.

This is obscene. And also strongly suggests that these ignorant bigots don’t actually use libraries themselves or they would know how children’s and YA sections work. Solidarity with the targeted librarians and authors irishtimes.com/ireland/educat…

The moment propagandists started calling teachers and librarians groomers, violence was on the table. The moment politicians started fundraising off this slander, that threat radically increased. It's coming.

Solidarity with my fellow librarians country-wide that are facing horrible backlash and threats for simply doing what we all strive to do on a daily basis. Offering free, OPTIONAL services to EVERYONE in the communities we work in.
