Good ideas for school libraries: 8. Be inspired

There are the most wonderful essays to read among the winners of a contest on the topic: What I wish everyone knew about librarians.

Read them here.  Be inspired.

And then, write your own version.  As a celebration of what you do every day, and why, and how you feel about it.  Focus on the positive - acknowledge the things that get you down, by all means, but write something that will inspire you about the work you do every day, and how you do it, and the things that are good, or funny, or just the-way-things-are.  The contest's over, and maybe the piece you write is going to be just for you.  But the very act of writing it is a gift to yourself.  Do it.
