From our stacks: "Another worker makes file cards for each book, showing the book's title, author, and other information. The cards for nonfiction books also show the book's library numbers. Then the cards are filed in the library's "card catalog"." From What Happens at the Library by Arthur Shay. Chicago: Reilly & Lee Books, 1971.
We are excited to announce that Hockey4Palestine is accepting artists to join our collective effort to raise funds in support of the Palestinian people. Whether you're a fanart illustrator, a fanfic writer, or both, we need your creative talents to make this initiative a success!
How You Can Help:
Join Our Artist Collective: We are currently looking for passionate creators to volunteer their skills. By contributing fanart or fanfiction, you will play a crucial role in our mission to encourage future donations to our selected Palestinian support organizations. To sign up, please fill out this Google form.
Spread the Word: Even if you can't contribute art or writing, you can still help by sharing our mission with your followers. Every reblog and mention counts!
What to Expect:
Volunteer-Based: Please note that this is a volunteer-driven initiative. Artists will not receive financial compensation, but your contribution will make a significant impact.
Tiered Rewards: As our community grows, we plan to implement tiered donation levels. Higher donations will correspond with more detailed fanart or longer fanfics, giving donors a meaningful way to support a cause they care about.
Flexible Participation: Once we start receiving commission requests, artists will have the freedom to choose which projects they want to work on.
Your involvement can make a real difference! If you're interested in joining or have any questions, feel free to reach out to us. Let’s come together to create something beautiful for a cause that matters.
« Every time Donald Trump visits the Midwest he tells us how much he hates it. He called Milwaukee horrible. He called Detroit corrupt. He denigrated Chicago police. His visit to Chicago will no doubt be another attempt to distract from his flailing campaign with as many lies as there are vacancies at Trump Tower. »
