We are holding a FREE webinar on August 3rd between 15.00-17.00 on Delivering Health Literacy Training to 16-18 year olds. Read more about the project here: tinyurl.com/3hu8fcwz Contact @bcb567 for more details. Everyone welcome - teachers and librarians alike!
I think I've spotted where the last 20 years has gone wrong. It turns out that being able to Google a topic is *not* quite as good as being an actual expert in it with qualifications and experience and stuff. I know!
New Blog Post: Literacy Dilemmas in Schools written by @Sarahinthelib for @infolitgroup makes very interesting reading! infolit.org.uk/literacy-dilem…
Everyone in the world of children's books is supporting @CressidaCowell's call on the government to invest in school libraries. Because we know, as @chrisriddell50 once said, that LIBRARIANS CREATE THE READERS OF THE FUTURE! #lifechanginglibraries booktrust.org.uk/news-and-featu…

Happy #WorldBookDay! I believe EVERY CHILD CAN BE A READER. Give them the widest possible range of books, and let them choose freely. Never say they're "too old" or "the wrong gender" for a book. Because every reader has the right to read whatever they love! Art: Quentin Blake
Happy #WorldBookDay! Tweet us a picture of what you're reading on this special day! 🤳 In case you need it, here is a list of reasons about why reading is awesome. 📚🎉
With #schools reopening, it's now especially important that pupils are looked after. Join us for our webinar that'll discuss the innovative ways that a school library can function as a sanctuary to support and enhance student #wellbeing. 🧠✨ Book here: buff.ly/3qYf3f4

How do you get kids to read? LET THEM READ THINGS THEY REALLY WANT TO READ! And let them enjoy it, whatever it is: fiction, non-fiction, poetry, picture books, comics, sports reports. All reading is reading! Let it be a pleasure, and #literacy will follow! (Art: Bill Watterson)
True 👇🏼👇🏼 Love the hoodie too
