When you watch Mychal Threets' videos and reels, you might feel like you've been invited into a cozy corner table at your favorite library for a friendly chat. He's gone viral for sharing his love of books and his warm and fuzzy stories from his daily adventures as a supervising librarian in the Solano County Library system.
However, Mychal isn't just fluff. He's substance, using his platform to elevate the vital message that representation matters, that mental health isn't a weakness, and that diversity and inclusivity is beautiful and important.
