New bio on most of my profiles: Mom & PhD with a librarian’s heart and an academic’s mind. I manage multiple chronic illnesses and I love books and games. 🌈♿
@cygnoir Thanks! I really am always thinking about how to get better at representing who's walking around in this meat cage. It's nice to hear the effort is working.
@KimberlyHirsh what a fantastic bio. As a former librarian who struggles to represent that part of their identity the phrase “a librarian’s heart” really speaks to me 🥰
@ekcragg I always say being a librarian is a disposition, a way of interacting with the world and sharing with other people. I've only worked in a library for one school year but I've stayed a librarian in the intervening 11 years.
@KimberlyHirsh I was Head Student Librarian in high school 35 years ago, but some part of me will always be a librarian.
