I need another social media account like I need a sharp stick in the eye. But here I am. 😜 Fifteen years on Twitter. Now find me on BlueSky and Threads as well.

On this day in 1959, "The Sound of Music" premiered on Broadway. The Library's Music Division is home to Oscar Hammerstein’s lyric sheets, which show us how his first draft of "My Favorite Things" evolved to become the song we know and love today. blogs.loc.gov/music/2020/12/…

Happy Hallo-read! It was a fun and spooktacular celebration as the @librarycongress participated in the White House #Halloween celebration. It was wonderful reading to families, giving out books to trick or treaters, and meeting some amazing authors. 🎃👻🧛‍♀️

I love baseball! Tonight is the first game of the #WorldSeries. Whether you’re cheering for the @yankees, @dodgers or staying loyal to your team, #baseball brings us together. It’s more than a game but something so uniquely American that it is engraved in our collective spirit.

Since the World Series begins tonight, we thought we’d share this Library treasure: Rare footage of the final game of the 1924 World Series! It was found in an attic, then sent to the Library to be preserved & digitized. Read more in this 2014 blog post: blogs.loc.gov/now-see-hear/2…

Nobody wants Library of Congress collections getting WET, but it does happen from time to time. 🫣 That’s why the Preservation Emergency Response Team (PERT) exists, to help mitigate damage when collections encounter water. Here's a sneak peek at PERT's recent training workshop.

Happy Wonder Woman Day! ⭐️ She was first introduced in All Star Comic no. 8 on this date in 1941. And with one of the largest collection comic book collections in the world, the @librarycongress Serials Division has that issue. #comicbooks #WonderWoman

John Kinsel, Sr., one of the last remaining Navajo Code Talkers who helped the Allied Forces win World War II, has died. Kinsel's personal narrative about his service is among those held by the Veterans History Project (VHP) at the Library. ➡️ loc.gov/item/afc200100…

Great Scott! It’s Back to the Future Day! So we have to go back… back to the day one of the DeLoreans visited the @librarycongress “Back to the Future” was added to the National Film Registry in 2007. #throwback #backtothefuture

Sign the pledge. I have. Let’s stop book banning!

We need your help standing up to book bans! Ahead of the election, libraries nationwide will be hosting rallies to champion your #FreedomToRead. Register now to attend the rally on the steps of The New York Public Library on October 19! on.nypl.org/3Bz3Xae

In an alternative universe the @librarycongress would have looked like this:

The Library of Congress could have been a dramatic, Gothic castle designed by Alexander Esty, had the Italian Renaissance vision of John L. Smithmeyer and Paul J. Pelz not won out in a congressionally authorized design competition. 🧵

The @metmuseum opened a new exhibit about the architect Paul Rudolph. Many items are loaned by the @librarycongress incl architectural models that are amazing. curbed.com/article/paul-r…


I’m honored and humbled to be nominated by @MayorBowser to become a member of the @dcpl Board of Trustees. I testified and answered questions in front of the DC City Council today and now it’s up to them to confirm me. ❤️ #libraries 📚

U.S. Poet Laureate Ada Limón got to do something very special on Monday. She watched as a spacecraft carrying her poem, "In Praise of Mystery: A Poem for Europa," lifted off from @NASAKennedy, the first step in a 1.8-billion mile voyage to Jupiter’s moon. 🧵
