I was honoured to be "Librarian for a Day" at the North Vancouver District Public Library!

Yesterday, we met families and children, helped hand out reading records, and shared the joy of reading with the next generation.

4/9 Unlike the US, there haven't been widespread successful book bans in BC public libraries and schools.

But librarian Georgia Franklin notes: "Books are being removed from shelves and hidden, vandalized."

Vass and Cory on a virtual webcast discussing Cory's latest book. Vass is wearing an "Enshittification" logo pin, and Cody has an astonishing number of lanyards on a bulletin board behind him.

I'm teaching an Intro to #DH course for graduate students with the help of the amazing staff at #BCLibraries

Today we looked into #TEI, how can we engage with it critically, its limitations, its opportunities, and what we can do with it.

We even coded a little bit on #VSCode
