Saturday Snap – Spoiler Alert: The Test Was Negative

A few people we’ve told about our experience going for a COVID test said they appreciated having some information about what the process was like.  So we thought it might be worth posting for anyone else who is curious or ends up having to go for a test themselves.

Premier Scott Moe had a press conference tonight to announce that…he will be having a press conference tomorrow night to talk about how his government has a five point plan for reopening the province now that we’ve flattened the curve…maybe.

Fun With Opposites – Linda from London Public Library

Was nice to see this pop up in one of my social media feeds today – one of my favourite classmates in library school (and a real life rock star librarian!) doing a digital program (and I’ll likely do a longer post at some point about the library’s role and response in the COVID era […]

Friday Fun Link – A Message From Michael

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Crowded Concourse Before COVID (October 2016)

I thought I’d take that challenge but go a step further to post a few photos and significant dates from my own personal COVID timeline… My Personal COVID Timeline Late November – early December 2019 COVID […]
