The updated Rosemount branch of OttPubLib/BibPubOtt looks like everything we need in our community library space. Looking forward to bringing my boys back to the library again when the building re-opens! We check out exterior progress daily! biblioottawalibrary.ca/en/rosemount-r…

I’d love to add this Eric Walters book to my school library!

Always exciting to get the next issue of Teaching Librarian! There’s so much good stuff in here 👍🏼

Let's all try to remember this to keep things in perspective. Our actions 100% make or break the reality of what the cases look like in our city.

I may be a day late, but the idea is still the same. School libraries are as important now as ever, and I hope they continue to get the appreciation and support they deserve! Erica Eades (she/her) Sacha Neesham Sara Spencer Shelagh Straughan Laurel Tarulli

Happy that independent bookstores are finding a silver lining in the midst of this pandemic (& that people are reading more). Win-win! One of my favourites is Books On Beechwood in Ottawa. cbc.ca/news/entertain…

Love this children’s book and I have just the little person in mind that would enjoy this book!

I’ve been a fan of Docs For Schools for years, and this fall’s program does not disappoint. Beyond Moving is an emotional and inspiring story about dance. Students at @elmwooddotca are watching the documentary this week. Thanks to @hotdocs for making this possible!

These remarkable Elmwood School Grade 12 IB students finished their Extended Essays (aka 4000 word research papers) last week. It's a feat they should be proud of and this experience will serve them well in university next year. These cupcakes were definitely well-deserved!

Beautiful winter day to be outside for recess break supervision! The new skating rink at @elmwoodDotCa is already getting broken in by a group of middle school students. #getoutside

Can't wait to celebrate I Read Canadian Day with the readers at Elmwood School in a couple of weeks. We have some fun surprises in store as well!

This week I introduced my middle school students to spoken word with Britta Ba-Doom Badour in a virtual session hosted by OttPubLib/BibPubOtt for poetry month. Great way to start the week and engage students with different ways to appreciate the poetic form.

Thoughtful discussions today in my Grade 8 Information Literacy class about the purpose behind the information we encounter online (entertainment, advertising, opinion, documentation, etc). Really enjoying the Checkology modules - and so are the students. #onlinelearningwins

Stories have played, & will continue to play, a role in educating Canadians, young & old, about the terrible legacy of Residential Schools. There's no excuse not to know the history or its impact. Here is a thread of books, thanks to all who listed them over the last week (1/?)

Lots of great game suggestions in the Get Your Game On session this afternoon at the AISL conference. Looking forward to trying some of these out at Elmwood School soon!#AISL22

In the midst of book challenges, removals and outright banning of titles, Penguin Random House 🐧🏠📚 has created a fireproof copy of Atwood's Handmaid's Tale. Current bid is 42K. I really like the image of Margaret with a blowtorch. wapo.st/3z1wEJX
