Barbara Stripling

Just made a donation to Philadelphia Alliance to Restore School Librarians restorephillylibrarians.org/donate_main?re…

It's emotionally taxing to have my book(s) banned. But not because they're my books, but because all I can think about is the message it sends to the Black kids who see themselves in my books. They deserve to have their stories told whether it makes you comfortable or not.

During this season of #GivingTuesday, we urge you to donate to the #MerrittFund. A fund dedicated solely to the support of librarians facing discrimination or defending #IntellectualFreedom. (video courtesy of @FTRF) #FreePeopleReadFreely youtu.be/_GhKbNS7KHA

@BrettKelman I think I'm moving to Tennessee, finally some sanity. Too many political post with no critical thinking.

Ideas shared by participants at #CLIORetreat yesterday opened many paths to empowering all our students to be lifelong readers and learners. So exciting. @SLC_Online @MsJWhiting @MsThomBookitis @Librarian_Rush

@spkowalski @DiverseAlz Very normal. We each deal with grief in our own way. Your mind is working through it. Know that our hearts are with you.

@DiverseAlz Nightmares abt losing (physically) my mom in different settings... she passed in january.... nightmares still happening. Normal?

Any questions? #diversealz

@PSNTPS Yes, I created that graphic and yes, you may certainly use it in TPS training or for any other professional development.

@barbstripling Hello. We wanted to ask about the graphic for your inquiry model that appeared in the TPS Journal (p. 2) loc.gov/static/program… and using it in TPS training materials.

Hello @barbstripling. Have a question about your model of inquiry image. Can you please send a message?

#BannedBooksWeek •We can stand up for the legacy of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who said: “Fight for the things that you care about, but do it in a way that will lead others to join you.” Celebrate intellectual freedom. @FTRF @IFRT_ALA @OIF

#BannedBooksWeek is here! This week is an opportunity to celebrate our shared freedom to read while drawing attention to the harms of censorship. Find infographics, banned book lists, and coloring sheets at ala.org/bbooks/freedow….

The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas gave me a heart-wrenching inside view of racism & police violence. What #BannedBook or #BannedAuthor is meaningful to you @FTRF @LibnOfCongress @maddow?

@LibnOfCongress Would you be willing to do a recorded online interview with me about the power of using LOC primary sources for digital inquiry?
