I’m a librarian at a suburban high school outside of Chicago. Today is the day we wear our school colors (blue & gold). This is my favorite “spirit day” shirt. View high resolution

Take a picture of yourself with your bike for your commute to or from work and Tweet it at @libwardrobe (or submit the photo here) from now until Friday, May 10th to be included in a sweet collage of librarians-who-bike-to-work!
You have to be in the picture, showing what you’re wearing (no pictures of only bicycles). Bike selfies are harder than regular selfies, so you might need to enlist a colleague! View high resolution
