It was an honor to participate in the Media Summit hosted by @BPLBoston @wgbh and spotlight the importance of accessing correct and reliable information. The role libraries play in a democracy and a digital future are more vital than ever.
It's Preservation Week! As the national library of the United States, the Library of Congress is tasked with keeping priceless collections safe for future generations, and it wouldn't be possible without a talented staff of specialists who do just that. ❤️

The St. John’s Bible is a rare work of art and a commemoration of divine inspiration in honor of Pope Francis. The @librarycongress is honored to have it as part of our special collection after His Holiness blessed it during his visit to Washington, D.C., in 2015.
During his trip to the U.S. in 2015, Pope Francis blessed a gift to the Library, a rare "Apostles Edition" of The Saint John’s Bible. As the world mourns the pontiff, we wanted to share this beautiful artifact and remember that special moment. Read more: blogs.loc.gov/loc/2025/04/a-…

“The Sound of Music” turns 60 this week. The @librarycongress is the home of the Oscar Hammerstein papers. Here are his early notes on “Do-Re-Mi.” Some lyrics were different from the original draft: “Sow is what you do with wheat.”
It’s PEAK BLOOM!! 🌸 🌸 🌸 The @librarycongress has TWO of the original cherry blossom trees gifted by Japan to the US in 1912. These trees were transplanted behind the Library in 1922 and for more than a century we have taken good care of them.
