My Top YouTube Channels for Current (and Future!) Librarians

I have been an avid YouTube fan for as long as I've been allowed to access the Internet, so it was only natural I started here in my series highlighting online resources for future and current librarians! Keep an eye out for future posts as I plan to highlight amazing library content creators from TikTok, Pinterest, and blogs as well.

Before we get into it, a note of warning. As these are channels run by regular people who have their own lives, we are not guaranteed they will always be making content. In fact, that is already the case for a couple of channels featured in this list, but I included them anyways because the backlog of videos still up on their channels is still really valuable. I will do my best to keep this post updated in terms of the channels already listed as well as adding more as I hear about them!
