Your fave UF Libraries librarians take Minneapolis. Somebody should have told me to take off my conference lanyard though. 🤣

We're hoping to add another piece of history to the UF Digital Collections tonight, so enjoy the last two times the Florida Gators were in the National Championship! #GoGata #FloridaGators

Looking forward to adding the 2025 championship footage to the archives! #GoGata #FloridaGators #NationalChampionship

Last week at ACRL I talked to a librarian who said their university admin has taken over all of their library classrooms so they can't even use their own spaces for info lit instruction. And it made me think of how we have literally branded our classroom to avoid this. 🤣

So excited about this event launching our new UF Libraries digital collection on Thursday. Who's coming?

Excited to share that the paper I presented last week at the ACRL conference in Minneapolis has now been published as part of their official proceedings. Put a lot of work into this one! tinyurl.com/4ttrxx72

So...question. What happened to this system of checks and balances we were supposed to have?

What’s wild about getting older is that you can start saying things like “we’ve been friends for 20 years.” 20 years! And it’s really interesting to see who is in it for the long haul. It’s not always who you would expect.

Just left my son’s IEP meeting which I swear is the most stressful hour of my year. I think many special needs parents would say the same.

Those of us that grew up in a Lawton Chiles Florida know it CAN be different in this state and I think it makes it just that much sadder.

I’m kind of the perfect librarian to be on the UF Libraries research assistance desk around finals time because I’ve always been a last minute person, so when a student tells me their paper is due in 3 days I’m like “Oh plenty of time! You got this!” and they always look so relieved.🤣

My husband is such an extreme introvert that when he approached me with a face of horror I thought he was about to tell me someone died and all he said was “my boss wants us to come to his house for dinner.” 😂

A quality I love in a person - someone who gets outraged on your behalf. My dad has always been this way like “they said WHAT?! How dare they?!” Meanwhile he has no idea who said person is. 🤣🤣

My 10-year-old son: “For Mother’s Day I’ll watch that show with you that you like. The one with the mother and daughter.” Me: “Gilmore Girls?!” Him: “Yeah” Me: 😭😭

Conferencing! FLA was the first library conference I ever went to and remains one of my favorites to this day.

Conferencing part 2 ❤️

At least once a day I have the thought that if I ever actually got my act together the world wouldn't be ready. 😜

We're sharing a centennial feature project over these next few weeks to highlight 100 years of Smathers. Interested in seeing the whole piece now? Check out the webpage ow.ly/nHk250VFLN0 These iconic UF landmarks are brought to life with archival photos projected on them!

Ya'll: I hate submitting stats/forms/paperwork/reports with A PASSION DEEP WITHIN MY SOUL. If I had a secretary I would be unstoppable. That is all.

This app is pretty deserted these days, but I thought I would stop by and say hi to the last 5 people who interact with me on here. 👋
