McConnell hasn’t been seen in public for almost two months while on medical leave. He still broke ties on amendment votes “by proxy” on the farm bill Thursday.

Hello, if you want to do archival research and need to email archives staff a question about the collections, please DO NOT let AI write your query to the archives! This goes for historians, genealogists, media, social scientists, community activists, and the general public.

Library friends: I'm planning a blog post about negotiating during a job offer. Will you share with me what you negotiated? Or what you wish you would've negotiated? I'd like to give people a sense of the range of things they can ask for. 📚

I think it's a little bit of both - I think a lot of us are socialized to want lots of stuff from an early age. Think about the goody bags at birthday parties and swag bags at conferences. And unless something really forces you to confront your consumption (money for example) you don't. /1

I've mentioned in the past that I sponsored a local female race car driver and put pro-library messages on the car.

I’m not a doctor. I know nothing. Also? Most of the other problems are because of your feet. Your neck hurt? Your feet. Your hip hikes? It’s your feet. Your shoulder pulls? Your feet. Your jaw pops. Yep, it’s your feet. Maybe. Allegedly.
