Rebecca's Reading Room<p><strong>Celebrate National Library Shelfie Day&nbsp;2025</strong></p><p><strong>Let’s Celebrate Libraries!</strong></p><p>National Library Shelfie Day occurs annually on the fourth Wednesday in January. It is a great opportunity for people to reflect on the books that have influenced their lives and inspire others to engage with reading and explore the wealth of resources available at libraries.</p><p>Founded in 2014 by the New York Public Library, this event encourages us to take and share selfies. The catch is that this isn’t just any selfie; it’s a “shelfie,” which is a picture of yourself in front of a bookshelf at the library! It is an invitation to showcase our love for reading and recognize the importance of libraries. This fun initiative promotes literacy and also highlights the unique experiences and memories created within library spaces.</p><p>Whether you’re visiting your local library or showcasing your home collection, participating in National Library Shelfie Day is a creative way to inspire others to celebrate reading and explore the wealth of resources available libraries.</p> <p><strong>Libraries are essential!! </strong></p><p>Libraries are a safe space for community engagement, promoting literacy and support for lifelong learning. Libraries provide free access to a vast array of information resources, including books, journals, newspapers, and digital content, enabling individuals to acquire knowledge and stay informed. Libraries safeguard and preserve our stories for those who come after us.</p><blockquote><p>“When I got my library card, that was when my life began.” </p><p>Rita Mae Brown</p></blockquote><p><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://rebeccasreadingroom.ca/tag/books/" target="_blank">#books</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://rebeccasreadingroom.ca/tag/celebrations/" target="_blank">#Celebrations</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://rebeccasreadingroom.ca/tag/libraries/" target="_blank">#Libraries</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://rebeccasreadingroom.ca/tag/nationallibraryshelfieday/" target="_blank">#NationalLibraryShelfieDay</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://rebeccasreadingroom.ca/tag/new-york-public-library/" target="_blank">#NewYorkPublicLibrary</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://rebeccasreadingroom.ca/tag/shelfies/" target="_blank">#Shelfies</a></p>
