Friends, we’re past ALA Annual and San Diego Comic Con (not that we were there, but the internet, it was a-buzzing). I hope you’ll forgive us for running on low power as we focus on our day jobs, but don’t worry, we’re still bringing you as much awesome as ever! Enjoy these links we found, just for you.
New features:
- The folks at the Walker Art Center reflect on their experience with the Fluxus Club, using their library resources to engage the public. It’s a must-read!
- Check out these unique pop-up books featured on the Glasgow School of Art’s website.
Other news:
- We revisited a feature from Albany Public Library and their program to match original songwriting with literature. And it’s still going strong!
Fun stuff:
- The two most awesome videos found last week: a new BBC Sherlock clip (the period costumes!), and this Uptown Funk & Newsies mashup. The literal best.
- More heartbreaking than fun: this Book Riot contributor takes a stand on keeping marginalia or political pamphlets out of library books.
An expandable origami pot that comes with a plant. So cool! Also, a church in New Zealand made of trees. Gotta love that greenery.
- Rejoice, space nerds! The NASA Image collection is bigger and searchable in one place!
- 37 Best Websites to Learn Something New. Just go ahead and put ALL of them on your library’s website.
- Microsoft will launch a new Minecraft portal for educators, so look for that soon.
- A grad student unearthed a long-forgotten opera out of 20th century Harlem, now in production. Fascinating!
- In Indianapolis, public art projects will double as tiny libraries. Loving everything about this.
- Whoa, this infinite book tunnel in Prague is insane!
- Obviously, you need pictures of adorable guinea pigs as Harry Potter, Katniss, and other itty bitty characters. You need this in your life.
