Libraries Are For Everyone: Ojibwe

ByHafuboti

I have two fantastic translations of LAFE into Ojibwe.

The first Ojibwe translation comes from Stephanie Schroeder in Saint Paul, MN. The concept was hard to translate so the teachers of Harding Senior High School conferred together and came up with “We are at the reading house,” hoping that it conveyed togetherness and inclusivity.

The second translation comes from tribal elder Dr. Chelsea Mead

Thank you everyone, for making these beautiful signs possible!!!!!

Every-once-in-a-while my team gets stumped on décor for a theme. We throw out ideas and then we throw out those ideas. And nothing goes “ding” like you hope it will.

The magnificent Megan in Illinois wrote me last week to share what her library’s done with my designs. After I finished squeeeeing, I read the rest of her email. In it she asked if I would make my Libraries Are For Everyone bookmarks in black and white. About a week later: voilà! An option for…

Many months back I created another pop-culture/library symbol mashup series – this time featuring the Lumberjanes! I somehow managed not to share them here on my blog, for some reason. Most likely forgetfulness. But if you haven’t read Lumberjanes and/or it’s not part of your library’s collection – then add it and read it! Ladies…
