I Need to have a Geek Moment!

I wanted to quickly share a few highlights from the last few weeks!  So Warning--- Geek moments ahead!

Last week our awesome Library Administrator was honored with the Distinguished Library Service Award for School Administrators for the state of Texas!  WOW!!  One Administrator from the entire state (which you know is big) was selected to receive this award. Ms. Renee Smith-Faulker truly values the library and has a great vision for CISD libraries.  Not only does she have a vision, but she puts the vision into action.  I am so excited, grateful, and honored to work in a district that utilizes and supports their libraries. Check out her blog post and the Google Hangout on Air of her award speech.

Geek Moment #2

I think I might have won the title of World's Coolest Librarian!
Not because of anything I have done, but because...

An Author tweeted me!!!! 
                 &
Lego Man tweeted me!!!!!

This might not mean much to the average adult, but when I mentioned it to my 10 year old son, I received an ooohhh & awwww.

I wanted to Geek Out about this for a moment, because to me it reflects the power of social media, connection, & support. I thank Ms. Smith Faulkner for leading us to blog regularly, tweet, and to lead with an online presence.

I am so excited to collaborate with Mara Shaughnessy @lilmonstermara the amazing author & illustrator for LegoMan in Space!  I think I floated on cloud 9 for two days after her and lego man's @legomaninspace  Sweet Tweets!
