#Librariesmatter
#librariesmatter I borrow library books, and will occasionly buy one after a 'test drive', most often a cookbook.
Chatting with a friend.

Friend: I don't use the library a lot. I buy books.

Me: I mostly go to the library. I don't buy more than one or two books a month.

(Btw it's November 11, and I've bought 2 already)

We’re turning the page on Library Month 📖 but don’t judge a book by its cover…because we love libraries all year long!

I love supporting and celebrating all of the amazing work that libraries do to serve communities across BC, as both the Minister responsible for literacy programs… /1

This film just got returned.
Good stuff ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Reality is that Library staff:
- evaluate content to identify relevance to our users
- negotiate the best possible licences for access
- enable seamless authenticated access
- upgrade metadata to ensure that the content is as discoverable as possible

✅ We want libraries that are visible, vibrant, and valued. Not diluted. Not dismantled.

🚚 And not driven off in a van.

Great to see Muswell Hill Library open again today after extensive restoration and refurbishment!

It is the final of Haringey’s nine libraries to reopen after £4.9million has been spent improving the libraries and making them accessible for everyone.
