Promotional graphic announcing a presentation at AASL 2025 in Saint Louis. The title reads: “WE’RE PRESENTING! Keeping Up with the Joneses: Infusing Humor into School Libraries for Engaged Learning” with laughing, book, and graduation cap emojis. Below is the AASL logo with event dates: October 16–18, 2025, and the URL national.aasl.org. At the bottom are two headshots: Amanda Jones on the left, smiling in a rainbow tie-dye “I ♥️ That Librarian” shirt, and Tim Jones on the right, smiling in a dark shirt with multilingual “Libraries Are for Everyone” text. Their social handles are listed: @librarianjones.bsky.social and @themisterlibrary.bsky.social.
It's my great honor to announce that I'll be co-presenting with @librarianjones.com at #AASL25.
If you know either of us, you know we believe joy, wit, & a little mischief belong right alongside literacy & advocacy.
