I'm reading two books that get me in the right frame of mind as I work on a book chapter: "Twisted: The Tangled History of Black Hair Culture" by Emma Dabiri and "Just Work: Get Sh*t Done Fast & Fair" by Kim Scott.
Conferring, educating, and growing.

What I value most about ACRL is that while working on my MLIS degree, I found insightful resources through the websites. But more importantly, I've gained friendships and networking through CORE forums and workshops that serve as an asset to this day.

My journey of becoming a library professional has come full circle since I was a professor for over a decade. So my contributions on my campus take the form of a teacher/librarian who is mentoring, writing, researching, and serving.

What I do daily is stand at the gap. Some days I stand symbolically, but most days, I stand literally. I assist colleagues, students, and community patrons in gaining knowledge and understanding. I invite others to stand with me!
