@miriamkp Recommendation: pick up to three favorites, file in obscure place, rediscover years later!

So journalists, let's be clear: if you fall off a ladder, you're "injured"; if you're the victim of gun violence, you're "wounded". Important distinction; it matters how we talk about this. Right. Thank you.

#ALAAC2017 Gets my vote for best booth. Reminds me of my backyard. Cool.

#IFLA2016 President's program. Big trends, big ideas. Fascinating panel. Go back and make it happen

#WLIC2016 Arrived in Columbus, Ohio, for IFLA WLIC, stepped off the plane and into--the Learning Commons?

So what about synchronized gymnastics? There's synchronized diving, why not synchronized gymnastics? What fun! We'd watch that!

If we truly are stronger together, can we please stop talking so much about "fighting"? I much prefer to hear about "working together"

#DNCinPHL Don't boo. Vote.

OK, yeah, I see it. When Trump goes low, Hillary goes high--and Tim Kaine goes to work! It's going to be a long three months (sigh)

If your "heart belongs to Bernie" your vote needs to "belong to Hillary". Your vote MUST belong to Hillary. Please. Vote. Vote for Hillary.

Dems in Philly are a pugilistic bunch, fighting for this, fighting for that. Who are we fighting with? Might it be better to work together?

Q: Mr. Trump, if you're so rich, how come you ain't smart? A: Biff! Bam! Sock! Pow!

Just tuned into tonight's Democratic debate and was excited to see Hilary styling that Jane Jetson look. What a frock!

Snow on the ground, snow on the way, blizzard warning this afternoon, situation deteriorating. #alamw15

Linus is blanketing Chicago with snow. Blizzard warning today! Be careful out there. #alamw15

Today's motto: Expect the best, prep for the rest.

Sustainability--when you give a baby a bath, be careful not only when you throw out the bath water, but how, and where.

Value of Big Data = volume + variety + velocity + veracity #designinglibraries

Change--manage it, embrace it, celebrate it, but be careful, thoughtful, thorough so that what shouldn't, hasn't.
