Social Media and the Library

IMAGINE AN IMAGE OF SOCIAL MEDIA ICONS HERE THAT REFUSED TO UPLOAD

 Instagram

@thebookwrangler

Mike is a public school librarian who shares incredible visuals, displays and freebies.

His aesthetic is so visually appealing.

Stephanie Howell

Stephanie is a military mom who has lived all over the world and currently resides in Alaska. I utilize her site for personal book recommendations. She feels so deeply for books that you can’t help coming back.

Dahnya Garcia Giampietro

Dahnya runs a vibrant school library in Texas that is the stuff that dreams are made of!

@ramonarecommends 

Courtney Hinshaw

Courtney has been sharing books on IG for ages! Her tagline is to “Open the Magic” and if that isn’t the truth about picture books?!?

TikTok

@taylortotsworld

Taylor Coonelly

Taylor shares the librarian perspective. She has great shelf displays, Tik Toks about fixing books and more!

@edenvictorria

Eden Victoria

Eden shares book recs with a beautiful British accent. I’m sold on anything that is delivered in a British accent. 

YouTube

The Book Leo

https://www.youtube.com/@TheBookLeo

This page is new to me as YouTube is not a space I generally go to for book info. She disects a lot of popular books which I find enjoyable. 

Facebook Groups

When I was interviewing for the position of Library Media Specialist I joined a bunch of Facebook Groups. Here is a smattering of them. I’m sure in time I will weed these as well. Library humor. Ha! 

It’s Elementary, Dear Librarian 

School Library Media Specialists and Librarians

Librarians, Library Media Specialists, Technology Integration Specialists

Mychal 

Mychal is in many spaces. I am not much of an X user. It gives me the icks. But when I popped over he was there and I felt like a safe library grown-up. I know him from instagram, but it seems he’s here too.
