Help! I'm having the worst time finding clear guidelines for SLJ / PW / Kirkus reviewers. Trying to teach MLIS students the format, and the super useful Anatomy of A Review from Kiera Parrott has disappeared. Anybody got current detailed guidelines for reviewers?

@GeekGirlCon what an amazing audience at the Love Your Shelf teen book panel! The QR code was wrong 🤦‍♀️ but pls boost bit.ly/teensatGGC23 for the list of recs!

If you watch #BarbieTheMovie this weekend, just remember that the dazzling cinematography was made by Mexican talent. Rodrigo Prieto is highly acclaimed in the film industry for his innovative style where lighting and composition are essential storytelling elements. 🎥

@surlyspice right? I made a first attempt! tinyurl.com/IGbookspt1 and tinyurl.com/IGbookspt2 - see what you can catch that I missed or got wrong?

The Venn diagram of Indigo Girls fans and queer librarians of a certain age is practically a circle... how did nobody mention the very specific books in the set backdrop and the MERCH? @surlyspice not to put you on blast but what the heck? 😂

Part 2 (the lower shelves) is here: tinyurl.com/IGbookspt2. Definitely some titles that are hard to make out from my concert tee - lmk what you recognize that I missed and I'll update!

How many librarians swooned when we saw the set backdrop for @Indigo_Girls and @NekoCase on tour? I used my tee and lots of years in kid/YA lit to take a first stab at the reading list: tinyurl.com/IGbookspt1. Available at your local library (we hope)! @SPLBuzz

TEAM. This 1989 paperback from Tor is NOT ONLY a double feature Vonda McIntyre / James Tiptree Jr. NOT ONLY a flip-it-upside-down do-si-do. In the middle? Completely hidden and not mentioned anywhere? IS THE FIRST THREE CHAPTERS OF SWORDSPOINT. just hanging out! LEGENDARY.

@NotLasers Raffi is on tour this year and I GOT TICKETS

@FOBoard_Game that was 18 years ago yesterday! Truly our first years together in SF had adventures for the ages.

@FOBoard_Game ...and I was holding my scavenger hunt stuff: a calla lily, a pair of glasses, a physics book, I forget what else. I WAS MEG MURRY **MY** FAVORITE 😮😭 reader, I married her

@outseide A little bit ago we heard CRASH *car alarm* outside: an Uber driver whose fare up the block cancelled when he arrived, and then he slid down the street into a truck. We're on a small slope, not hill really. Bad choice to go out today AND BUT gig folks need workplace protections!

@outseide Microclimates are wild! I'm barely north of you in Seattle and we had snow on and off from 4pm yesterday, with enough accumulation for me to do some shoveling!

That $35 that scientific journals charge you to read a paper goes 100% to the publisher, 0% to the authors. If you just email us to ask for our papers, we are allowed to send them to you for free, and we will be genuinely delighted to do so. twitter.com/mantia/status/…
