Spinning Words with a Librarian: A Heart-Soothing Sanctuary, 'Rin's Kotonoha Library' 📚✨

Hello, I'm Rin Kiki, and I simply love books.
As a librarian and a mother of a two-year-old, I want to share the charm of books that I feel in my daily life with more people. With that thought in mind, I decided to start 'Rin's Kotonoha Library'.

This place is like a small library in town. It is a space where I, standing at the counter, and you, who love books, can exchange words and share knowledge. It is a space where you can feel free to talk about anything, from reading to little daily worries and parenting tips.

'Rin's Kotonoha Library' is a note membership where book lovers can connect in a relaxed way. I hope to share a comfortable space with those who think, 'I want to talk about reading casually,' 'I want to cherish a life with books,' or 'I'm too busy to read but I love books' 📚✨

📖 What is 'Rin's Kotonoha Library'?

'Rin's Kotonoha Library' is a community where people who love reading and enjoy sharing can connect loosely.
With 'Kotonoha' (words) + 'Library,' it has the image of a small town library you can visit casually. I am the only librarian at the counter, and of course, I accept references (consultations), but you are also welcome to come just to chat, and I hope to build a wonderful bookshelf based on your requests.

✔ I want to keep up a reading habit, but I can't find the time
✔ I want to know ideas for enjoying books with children
✔ I want to continue outputting casually through writing
✔ I want to cherish my own time while balancing childcare, work, and hobbies
✔ You don't have to be a mom! I want to interact loosely with other book lovers

🌿 What you can do when you join

📖 You can read member-only articles
・Information provided only by a librarian! I will share how to choose recommended books and how to utilize libraries. ・Private photo-essay style articles, such as 'literary landscapes' I found locally.

🌟 I plan to write articles like these!
'Recommended for working moms! How to create a relaxing reading time on weekday nights'
'Recommended picture books by child's age: Tips for reading aloud and how to choose'
'Can be done between childcare! Introduction to recommended books that can be read in a short time'
'Make reading records a habit! Reading log techniques for busy people'
'Stress relief through writing! Writing techniques that accompany your busy daily life'

💬 Member-only community (LINE OpenChat, no face-showing, optional)
I have created a LINE OpenChat for interaction.
In OpenChat, you can create a new LINE profile, so you can participate with your favorite nickname and icon image.
Due to the system, you cannot become friends with other participants.
Please feel free to participate even if your real name (LINE name) is different from your note name.

・'Sharing reading records and written texts and exchanging impressions'
・'Exchanging information on recommended picture books for children,' etc.


📖 If enough people gather and there is interest, we can also do relay novels and reading challenges!
・Create relay novels with multiple people
・Set reading goals such as 'Read X books in a month' or 'Read books of XX genre' and encourage each other
👉I want to incorporate the opinions of the participants.

📌 Text-based interaction without showing your face is the standard!
'It's difficult to participate in real-time,' 'I'm not good at online events where I have to show my face.'
For those people, I will provide a place where you can feel free to write or just read.
