Zu #Ostern aktivieren wir mal unsere #Followerpower: Habt ihr solche Holz-Eier schon mal gesehen und könnt uns etwas über sie erzählen? Sie lassen sich wie Matroschka-Puppen ineinander schachteln. 🪆 Wir besitzen ein ganzes Set und rätseln, was man wohl mit ihm gemacht hat … 🤔 pic.twitter.com/ob2WtlHkbs

'Nicht geimpft' sagt mein Vater schon immer, wenn Menschen sich fahrlässig unvernünftig verhalten. Hier trifft der Spruch das Problem umso besser im Kern. Ich habe dafür wirklich kein Verständnis mehr. https://t.co/qcTNwvHxDc

Connecting ‘April’ to ‘aperīre’ (to open) is probably just a lovely folk etymology.
The etymology is far from certain. Many sources link it to Etruscan 𐌀𐌐𐌓𐌖 (apru), a shortening (Aphrō) of the Ancient Greek Ἀφροδίτη (Aphrodítē ≈ Venus), which also has a disputed etymology. https://t.co/G1cz1fzXKO

If you think being stuck in your house for a pandemic year was bad, just imagine how Noah and his family felt after being cooped up in the arc for a year, with nothing to do but look at the water and try to keep the lions from eating the sheep.

Peer review would be so much better if reviewers wrote about the manuscript presented to them instead of the one they imagine themselves writing if they had unlimited time and money.

The only prediction I can make about the future with any confidence is that, a year from now, we'll still be getting phone calls from people wondering when we're going to open back up to the public.

"Hello and thanks for calling the library."
"Yeah, when are you going to open back up to the public?"
"We already did that."
"You did? When?"
"In 2020."
"Did you tell anyone?"
"No, we didn't want to make a fuss."— Lousy Librarian (@LousyLibrarian) April 2, 2021

Continental European academic libraries should be particularly concerned about the 1st issue mentioned – publishers increasingly excluding walk-in users. With the switch to e-only, users who are not staff or students, are losing access to scholarly sources. https://t.co/M5ZJIBLvJq
