Oops, sorry ! I wrote the wrong title. It's Our Shared Shelf of course. ^^
You could even be a sort of "Badge Fairy" in your own City.

Well, of course i wont post a single badge each day. ^^
BTW, if you are interested, i can do some badges to add as a goodie when you do a contest to win a signed book or something else. :-)
Okay, i replied to my private messages. :)I will send several badges to people who asked me.
Of course, i can't send a thousand badges everywhere. So when you will receive the badges, you can by yourself send it to someone else.
Do you agree ?
BTW, if an admin could rename the title of the topic by OSS Badges, that would be great. :)

It's a great idea to pass them along!
Thank you so much :)Just to inform : i put 6 badges in each packages.
Okay, guys :)I have already 6 packages to send. So for the moment, i won't send more.
Thank you for your support ;-)
Just to let you know that i sent the packages today.
This seems like such a good idea- like a way we can identify people out from OSS :)

The amount of more friends we could make
Yes it would be interesting to see (if people wore them everyday) how many people you might run into over a period of time. ;)
Anytime I see someone reading a book of an author selected by OSS (for example last weekend in the Parisian métro, a girl was reading Why the Caged Bird Sings, by Maya Angelou) I want to ask them whether they're part of OSS. But I don't want to be intrusive (also, "Our Shared Shelf" is complicated to say and understand for a French person ^^), badges would help :-D

I was wondering for a long time now if I am the only one in my city or not.
Slightly off-topic: Having been a feminist for fourty years, I have never until now, been able to actually claim to be such. (This unfortunate happenstance of having been born male, don'cha know) Is there any way I can officially join HeforShe?

There is:
You can register at the HeforShe website, which you can find here, and then choose your gender (either He, She or specified):

Well, and then off you go with your commitment;)
I have just joined the HeforShe website too, thank you for the link! I hope I'm not too young :)
Phoebe wrote: "I have just joined the HeforShe website too, thank you for the link! I hope I'm not too young :)"Nah, no one is too young for HeforShe(or being a feminist).
Second little bunch of badges sent to people who asked.I will do another one next month. :-)

Thanks a lot!
From what I have seen, they look really good Arnaud. :)
Thanks Robert :)Just one thing :
Remove them from backpack if it rains, because it could rust a bit.
Click on the link a few comments down or up depending how you are looking at this, once you join it tells you many ways you could help, etc
This is a brilliant idea! Side note: I've also joined HeForShe...not sure why I never did before!
I received my pins yesterday and I just want to say they are beautiful! I will make sure to share the other 3 with my friends and maybe hide one of the pins with a OSS book. Thank you so much!
You're welcome :)Do not hesitate to share pictures of the badges on instagram or any social networks. ;-)
Hello guys !Who already got their badges ? I know there are already some people who got them but someone sent me a message to say that when she got the package, the badges weren't inside anymore. :(
I will try to do a more secured package
I will send some probably next week to the people who already asked me and then i will stop.
I got mine as well, no problems at all!
watched the Orville it was great ep 4 particularly.
Wasn't it ? :D I hope our dear Emma watch it.
Another bunch of badges sent. :)As i told you it will be the last one.
If you are interested i can give you the paper to print badges yourself. :)
Arnaud, I just signed for mine this morning!
Thank you so much
They look great!

I just take the actual logo and make it a badge.
Of course, it is completely free :)
I gave around ten badges to Hannah when i met her at London Meet up on 21st July.
Maybe she still has some, so if you are from London, you can ask her by private message.
I can send some badges too. Just ask me by private message.
I don't get any profit for that.
You can see a photo of the badges on the photo section of the group. :-)
