America's 'Little Free Library' movement started in Wisconsin
DID YOU KNOW? For every one public library in the US, there are three Little Free Libraries. That's thanks to Wisconsin! Learn the story behind this incredible program, and how YOU can start one.
My library has two LFLs in neighborhood parks from April-November. We go through 300 books per week. Our Friends group manages them, replenishing weekly with hot titles we receive via donations. We stock them with lots of children's books, popular paperbacks, and recent magazines.

In library school, they don't teach you about being harassed for offering books to people. They don't have classes on how to respond to people threatening you or calling you a groomer. It's hard to stay strong when under fire. Kudos to Amanda for fighting back!

The Secret Behind Cynthia Erivoβs Flawless Nails in 'Wicked' and IRL
She has a squad of manicurists, for starters.
I was fascinated by Cynthiaβs nails on the Macyβs Thanksgiving Day Parade. They are works of art, but I canβt help but wonder how one takes care of personal hygiene with nails like that.
