Beyond Self-Care in Libraries: Supporting Ourselves Through Real Change
|
|
by Abigail L. Phillips
|
|
In our everyday work, we are skilled at and experts on meeting the needs of our patrons and communities. In the LIS practitioner literature and scholarship, the focus is typically on the needs of our patrons, how to improve our patron services, and innovative approaches to assisting patrons. But it is critical that we give attention to the services we provide (or should provide) ourselves as information professionals. Whether working the circulation desk or planning and conducting children's programming, we offer so much of ourselves, mentally and emotionally.

Last Seen in Sea Isle by Jane Kelly (A Meg Daniels Mystery, #7)
Meg Daniels should know by now that wherever she goes, mystery follows. Her fiancé is taking classes at Stockton University and has befriended Grace Grant, a fellow later-in-life student. Under false pretenses, Grace asks Meg to visit her lavish beachfront house in Sea Isle City, New Jersey, on the same weekend she’s hosting a reunion of pals from the summer of 1969. Meg discovers that Grace is hoping she’ll track down Guy—last name unknown—who disappeared from Grace’s life on the day of the moon landing.
