9/11 might be the favourite day of the year for the conspiracy-minded posters on r/conspiracy. 🙂

A Taste of What The Public Library in a Village of 255 People Has To Offer…

Man, do I love small town libraries! And always great to see the amazing things happening across the regional system where I first worked after completing my MLIS 13 (!) years ago.
