Bring on the highly anticipated three-day weekend! I am ready! Our pace has slowed significantly as we wrapped up our Epic Athenaeum series last week (for more info on this digital program series, check out this Weekly Nibble). I'm now working on a much simpler weekly series called Fairy Tale STEAM (stay tuned for July's … Continue reading Weekly Nibble: July 3, 2020

Weekly Nibble: March 20, 2020
Our library director made the difficult decision for us to close this week amid the coronavirus outbreak. We officially closed our doors after business hours on Tuesday evening and, as of right now, there is no official date for when we will open again. Programming has been cancelled through mid-May, which means every outreach visit, … Continue reading Weekly Nibble: March 20, 2020

Whew! This feels like the longest week I've experienced in a while. In combination with the full moon, Friday the 13th, and spreading fears about coronavirus, it's been insanely busy. On Monday, I had my first outreach visit to a new (to us) afterschool program doing Rhino in the House with over 50 kids. On … Continue reading Weekly Nibble: March 13, 2020

This Nibble is technically coming to you at midnight on Saturday, but since I'm in Nashville this week for PLA, it's really only 11:00. =) The conference has been amazing! I gave my presentation on Librarian-in-Training earlier this afternoon, and as far as I can tell, it went over really well! Everyone seemed very excited … Continue reading Weekly Nibble: February 29, 2020

I feel like I've been pretty useless this week. I developed a tickle in the throat over the weekend that turned into full-blown sinus issues later in the week. Now it's just an annoying cough that I'm hoping to shake before we leave for PLA on Tuesday! That's another reason I've felt useless. I've mostly … Continue reading Weekly Nibble: February 21, 2020
Weekly Nibble: December 20, 2019
I finished up my last few programs of 2019 this week! Looking back on a year of programming is always fun to do. This year has had its highs and lows for sure, but overall, I think it's been a good one! As an exercise in reflection, I'm going to spend this Nibble looking back … Continue reading Weekly Nibble: December 20, 2019

My first time as a webinar presenter went off without a hitch! I am incredibly grateful to the Nebraska Library Commission for allowing me to present on Librarian-in-Training this week on their NCompass Live show. I hope that the more we spread the word about this program, the more libraries will adapt it and encourage … Continue reading Weekly Nibble: December 13, 2019
Weekly Nibble: December 6, 2019
It's been a pretty quiet week at the library with everyone sort of winding down and doing holiday things. Not a lot to report except that "plate-skating" as it was dubbed by one of my kiddos yesterday was a big hit! (If you don't know what I'm talking about, head over to the Much Hamsters … Continue reading Weekly Nibble: December 6, 2019
Weekly Nibble: September 13, 2019
This week's post is going to be the update you should have had last week. I do apologize for the hastiness of last week's Nibble. I don't like to skip a week because I feel it's important to keep in the habit of writing something, but amidst all the travel, it was hard to have … Continue reading Weekly Nibble: September 13, 2019
Weekly Nibble: August 30, 2019
Anyone else find it hard to get back into the swing of things after a week off? That was definitely the case this week. Luckily, due to our downtime for planning in August, I'm pretty much caught up on everything and it didn't take long to make up for my vacation. Next week is our … Continue reading Weekly Nibble: August 30, 2019
