Library joy is more than a feeling; it is a choice and call to everyday practices of connection, empowerment, and well-being. And it isn't a heavy lift-in fact, it can all start with a few tiny seeds.

"Start your day with a smile to yourself, a service worker, a stranger, or a coworker."

"Reminisce about a book that you've enjoyed and why. Post a book recommendation in a workroom or share it with a coworker."

"Encourage someone new to libraries today - a library student, a new library user, a new coworker, or new community partner."

This delightful book brims with dozens of joy-centering approaches and activities ready to draw on whenever your day could use a boost. It also makes a perfect gift and is sure to bring smiles to your fellow library workers, trusted volunteers, board members, and all the book lovers in your life.
