I can't remember who around here mentioned #AutomaticNoodle by Annale Newitz, but whoever you are, thank you. I checked it out from the #library and I'm really enjoying it so far!

The definitions of audience are ambiguous. For example, the "Library" table https://codeberg.org/petitminion/fep/src/branch/fep-be68/fep/be68/fep-be68.md#library states that audience is a String (URI). But in the "Privacy level" section, privacy levels are defined as single-word strings, not URIs. Also, is it correct that Audio objects don't have an audience property?

A binman in Turkey’s capital found a bag of thrown-away books on his rounds and couldn’t bring himself to take it to the dump. He kept it. Other workers started doing the same. The pile has now grown into a public library of over 9,000 books, run by sanitation workers, in an old brick factory 📚 https://edition.cnn.com/2018/01/15/europe/garbage-collectors-open-library-with-abandoned-books #Books #Library

Just finished reading this fever dream of a fairy tale. 100% recommend. Beautifully plotted and lushly & lyrically written, although some elements aren't entirely modern in sensibility ( witches = evil, magicians = good, and the story needed a Hero to resolve it). Main character was believable in spite of being a unicorn. Loved it. PS Any idea how I get it back to its library in Kinshasa? #bookstodon #books #amreading #fantasy #library

#BookBans & attempted bans remain at record highs, acc/to the American #Library Association, & efforts to have titles removed have never been more coordinated or politicized. The #ALA on Monday issued its annual list of the #books most challenged at the country’s #libraries, part of the association’s State of America’s Libraries Report. #education #censorship #indoctrination #racism #misogyny #heterosexism #law #fascism #CultureWars #FarRight #extremism #Republicans https://apnews.com/article/bans-challenged-books-american-library-association-5403280786cf95111d4c9eb4b587c4be

I love this so much. The Washington DC public library has started a new project called Friendship Benches. You can sign up for a time slot to go to a public library and talk with a volunteer "grandparent" who has been trained to listen. The program is up and running at several DC library locations. What a beautiful, analog solution to the estrangement of our current times! Public libraries rock. #Library #PublicLibrary https://dclibrary.libnet.info/event/15725662

Perusing a review from a couple years back. "Libraries seeking stories that hold the overlay of fantasy & the literary strength of a psychological probe of leadership, downfalls, redemption & transformation on a personal and community-wide level will find The Redemption of Jarek a powerful interplay of forces that also deserves book club recommendation and debate." Diane Donovan, Midwest Book Review/Donovan's Literary Services, January 2024. http://donovansliteraryservices.com/january-2024-issue.html#roj #Bookstodon #fantasy #review #library #redemption #WritingCommunity

That thing where you wait 75 weeks for a popular e-book from your local library, but—because the app over-notifies and you've switched notifications off—you miss the short window when the book comes available. #Libby #app #ebook #audiobook #library #online
