Books at the library come in all shapes and sizes and what is in between the pages is even more diverse. Same goes for our patrons. All are welcome here. Sending supportive thoughts to @Kel_librarians today! #Diversity #librariesareforeveryone #stuisawesome
So I simply cannot wait any longer to show off our students’ Adopt-a-Shelves!!! Some are still in progress, but the ones who have created their mini book displays completely by their own design have knocked it out of the park! Photos of individual shelves in 🧵
It was six years ago, and my mate, Pink, had just been told he was going to die. He accepted the news with a grace I can only marvel at, but he said he’d a list of things he’d still like to do. We sat in a pub one night and read it over. Eight things? Four months? Ok. Deal. 🧵
Yay! Happy publication day to me!! #TheDrift is out in the wild today! 🎉❄️🩸
We were worried the mobile library would get lost in the snow, so we’ve given it a bit of a makeover 😎 Thank you Art Machine Shetland!
What a fantastic wholehearted idea ❤️ #librariesmatter
I am often amazed at the thoughtfulness of public library projects. For example, Cambridgeshire Libraries read to patients in intensive care via iPads, to help them feel less isolated and to bring comfort @cambslib.

listened to @CANADALAND this morning & @JesseBrown claimed that "no one has ever been inspired by Vancouver to write a great novel" so now I feel obligated to do a thread about great Vancouver novels:
We don’t always judge a book by its cover, but if there is one book in the collection that might be haunted…it’s this Frankenstein book of French sermons. (SC BX9426 W47S47 1744)
‘Videndum’ is a lovely word that has unfortunately fallen out of use. It means “something that should be seen.” (The plural is ‘videnda’)
Hi friends! After 7 years and hundreds of documentaries The Doc Project is ending. We are all moving onto different gigs within the CBC. Over the summer we’re re-releasing some of our favourite episodes from the archives. And then it’s a wrap. Thank you for following/listening!
BC #PublicLibraries and #Reconciliation action! @CranLibrary @pg_library @VPL @Kel_librarians of @ORLreads and the Kamloops Library of the TNRD Library each partnered with the Sixties Scoop Indigenous Society of Alberta @The_SSISA to bring this to their communities.
