So while I can't be at ALA, meeting librarians, and talking about library science, I can follow them on Twitter. Here's a snapshot at some of my favorite tweets I've found. This is just a slice, I know there are many more good tweets floating on the Twittersphere!

Hyperlink Roundup -- May 2nd

May 2, 2015 Hailley Fargo

Sorry it took so long to get this week's hyperlink roundup out. In the midst of everything, it seemed I didn't have any many links as I usually do. But now, since I'm working on an annotated bibliography for one of my classes, I got rolling on links to share.

May 1st Library Land Update

May 1, 2015 Hailley Fargo

Hello team! I'm back. It's currently GORGEOUS outside and I'm trying to get a little work done so I can lounge outside and read before heading to work later this afternoon.

Here's what you should know: finals are almost here...

Library Land and Bikes

April 24, 2015 Hailley Fargo

Another Friday, another update. This week was surprisingly way less stressful. I think the tide of overwhelming things to do has settled down. The end of the semester is near but feels more manageable. Thank goodness. My summer job has been lined up (working with kids at a summer camp in Peoria) and spring is here so I can ride my bike ALL THE TIME.
