Former indexer of U.S. govt. docs for @nsarchive.bsky.social, sorta family historian. I also review of TV shows, mainly animation/anime, & am a vegetarian, lover of cats, & scholar of history. He/him/his. https://histhermann.wordpress.com
- This is so heartbreaking. Like some of the other ppl quoting this post, I never knew her personally, but I always appreciated her written work, especially what she said about vocational awe. I even think that in some of my previous jobs I embodied that, and to my peril. She will certainly be missed.
- And I used her writings multiple times on my small WordPress blog focusing on #libraries and #librarians in #popculture, for a total of 17 times, often to analyze Western and Japanese animated series. popculturelibraries.wordpress.com/tag/fobazi-e...
- If at all possible, I'd love to add a tribute to her in my upcoming newsletter, just to note my appreciation at all she did as a librarian, and her contributions. I wish I had met her in person, but alas, that did not happen.

- Reposted by Burkely HermannI only knew Fobazi through her writing, but my god, WHAT a loss. Her work has had such an impact on librarianship, an influence that will long outlive her heartbreakingly short life. My thoughts are with everyone who knew and loved her.

- After I received this, I cancelled my subscription (I had only added it for promotional purposes, and the only things I listened to were the #SPOP soundtrack, a joke #doctoraphra song, and songs by #TWICE...)
