Spokane-area Fire Marshals have enacted countywide Fire Danger Burn Restrictions. Although we've had cooler temperatures and some rain, the risk of wildfires remains high. With hot weather on the horizon, our community must act now to prevent human-caused fires. my.spokanecity.org/fire/news/20...

That's a great display! Unfortunately, it's not ours. The Hillyard library is a part of Spokane Public Library, and they don't have a BlueSky account. But we love our sister library system, and love our library-going community!

Dark blue background with white text reading 'WHITE HOUSE "CUTTING OFF OPPORTUNITY" FOR AMERICANS AS ADMINISTRATION CUTS IMLS STAFF'. At the bottom are the American Library Association logo in red on the left and a 'SHOW UP FOR OUR LIBRARIES' call to action with a book and flag icon on the right.
Dark blue background featuring a quote from ALA President Cindy Hohl explaining how libraries provide opportunity for communities, stating that cutting federal support cuts opportunity for Americans economically, culturally, professionally and socially. The text explains that IMLS was created with bipartisan support and how staff reductions would undermine its mission. The quote ends with ALA pledging support to IMLS staff. The image includes the ALA logo and 'SHOW UP FOR OUR LIBRARIES' call to action at the bottom.
Heartbreaking news: The entire staff at the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS)—about 70 people—has been placed on administrative leave. The IMLS is the federal agency responsible for library funding, and this move puts widely used library services like MeLCat and MeL at risk.

PSA that we can support both our independent bookshop AND public library ❤️
They play such a vital role in our local communities, and they both need our support to stay open and keep offering valuable resources.
It's not either/or, but both/and 🥰
