Listening to WHERE THE JEWS AREN'T: The Sad and Absurd Story of Birobidzhan, Russia's Autonomous Region (2016) - Masha Gessen (narrated by Christina Delaine)

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masha_Ge

Cover art for Masha Gessen's 2016 audiobook Where the Jews Aren't: The Sad and Absurd Story of Birobidzhan, Russia's Autonomous Region. The color palette is mostly green with a yellow border and Soviet flag (at right). The background is edited to look like an old propaganda poster, with some light grime and scratches. There is a large light-green area at center in a roughly circular shape with irregular edges, and with dark-green forming the edges to the yellow border. The title appears in the upper-left in large, white, sans-serif angular block letters, the subtitle appears under this at center in small size of the same font. The author name appears on a dark-green background (with a white highlight at bottom and at the right) and with more rounded, medium-size block letters. Text at bottom reads, "Read by Christina Delaine" (small white block letters). The baseline of all the text is tilted slightly so it runs up and to the right.

Just a reminder, your local #publiclibrary has a ton of resources you get access to once you get your library card. Also it’s cool and good to go the library.

New library card: Mountain View Public Library 📚

library.mountainview.gov/

Photo of a Mountain View Public Library card and bookmark. They rest on an off-white desk mat. The library card has a background of solid blue (left 70%) and yellow (right). A circular logo overlaps the boundary of the backgrounds, with an illustration of a sun casting rays from partially behind two hills, a green deciduous tree in a green grassy area, a small section of water, and a dark-blue road on the right. Text at left reads "Mountain View Public Library" in large white block letters. Text at bottom reads "Connect Create Learn" in white block letters. Atrached to the library card, at right, is a small keychain card with identical elements but laid-out so the circular logo is on the left and text at right. The bookmark has a blue (leftmost 25%) and white solid background (right), divided by a gently-curving border of blue and yellow lines. The circular logo described previously is on the blue background, but the border lines around the elements is blue instead of white. Text on right reads, "Mountain View Public Library" (large blue block letters). Text that follows lists the address, hours, and social media addresses.

@everylibrary

Library of Congress classification system.

Oversized first. Over 14 inches vertically.

Subjects next.

Special work section for currently reading/using.

Had it by DDC until I got a job as academic staff in an academic library. I prefer LLC, but I think Public Libraries use Dewey so they dont have to pay catalog fees for most of their collection.

Hello and friends. How do you imagine the library of the future? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this.

- What kind of place will it be/how will it look like?
- Who will you meet there?
- What will be offered (media, activities, etc.)?

When you go to a public library and log in how fast do you expect the desktop to load?

I am so in love with this book 💯

Kate McKinnon and team produced a gem 💎 🏆🌟

I would listen to her voice-act anything. Possibly best sound-engineered book I've heard 💜

Cover art. The background is dark green with a gold border and ornate corners. The main focus is a whimsical illustration of three children and an adult standing on the back of a giant red worm with 4 eyes and rows of sharp teeth, which are swallowing the home of Millicent Quibb. The worm is partially visible as it has burrowed in and out of the ground. There are lots of little details like a butterfly flying away from Dee-Dee, Eugenia holding a black parasol, and Gertrude holding a small device with an anyenna. The house has small towers and a giant spotlight, which shines on "Mad Science" in the subtitle, which is rendered is scrawled red block letters like a crazy person wrote it. Title is in a large informal gold font, the rest of subtitle is in small white block letters. At bottom is gold text "By G. Edwina Candlestank as told to Kate McKinnon"

I feel like a waitress at a restaurant that sells Pepsi products.
"Do you have any Dogman?"
"Is Big Nate ok, hon?"

One bike is in the shop. Backup bike is currently without a chain. Checked out a bicycle from the Rushford Public Library. Adjusted and tightened loose seat after I got home.

Went for a pleasant jaunt around town.

Pleasant after I adjusted to using coaster brakes. A little terrifying when my hand gripping did nothing, nothing I tell you!

I now ❤️ handgrip brakes so much more.

A blue bicycle leans against a white and grey sign. The sign says "Welcome to Rushford est. 1854. The bicycle is on grey gravel with patches of green grass . Behind are bushes and trees with green leaves.

I found this #GraphicNovel by Michiel van de Pol just now at our local #PublicLibrary. Leafing through it, this sometimes seems to derail into some sort of psychedelic happening, described on the back as the blurring of the line between reality and fantasy.
