I’ll be showing and demo-ing some bookbinding tomorrow at the SJPL Staff Craft Showcase, Berryessa Branch Library, 2-4pm. There will be several other artsy & crafty staff chatting about what we do when we’re not librarianing. Stop by and say hi! #booknerdery #sjpl #thisisbookbinding #librarylife

Red-leather bound book, possibly morocco, titled: "Some Major Advances in the Federal Judicial System 1922-1947" by Henry P. Chandler

Inscription inside book: "To Honorable Warren Olney III, With appreciation of his kindness and high esteem, Henry P. Chandler."

#booknerdery (#2 in an occasional series)

A beautiful presentation copy of his work on the federal judiciary, from Henry P. Chandler, first Director of the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts, to his successor, Warren Olney III.

Oh, ya know, just throwing together a quick graveyard scene for the teen room before lunch. #librarianlife #booknerdery

Lovesick Falls by Julia Drake is a work read. Honestly I clicked HOLD without reading the description then learned it’s an As You Like retelling! I’m a sucker for Shakespeare retellings (do I STILL quote 10 Things I Hate About You? Perhaps…). #yafiction #teenfiction #lovesickfalls #booknerdery

‘Cause my dad said I needed to read it …as he texted to tell me his hold on Onyx Storm was ready. I mean, it was on my tbr already #booknerdery #fourthwing

I haven’t set my reading goals yet for 2025 but I will cease to use Goodreads so StoryGraph, Instagram, and here will be the places to follow my reading antics. Happy Reading! #bookstagram #storygraph #booknerdery
