There are many inspirational women across our city. A hack politician presiding over cuts in services to our most vulnerable citizens is not one of them.
·Council is now hearing a deputation on cancelling the £1 per annum cuts to the Libraries budget. Council will be hearing from Laura Swaffield and Maureen Freeman. You can watch here: shorturl.at/ZpG5a
SAVE LAMBETH LIBRARIES - SIGN THIS LETTER IF YOU'RE A BOOK PERSON (AUTHOR, ILLUSTRATOR, PUBLISHER etc). IT SAYS A LOT ABOUT WHAT OUR LIBRARIES & LIBRARIANS DO FOR US ALL... forms.gle/M5pRzaaR3gLFb6…
More & more libraries having to close due to short-staffing, years ago when there was give in the system this would rarely if ever happen but most services are below minimum staffing levels + lots of staff off sick due to stress & the aftermath of covid. #protectlibraryworkers
APOLOGIES to anyone who bought the i paper today expecting an article about Lambeth's awful £1m library cut. It wasn't there. It's here. It's super. archive.ph/t5PTj
That sudden realisation that you would have been much better off leaving the kids at home - 15th century, BnF Latin 919, f. 9v
Good to hear @BhamCityCouncil Deputy Leader Sharon Thompson on the life-changing opportunities that books can bring to people’s lives. Shame that @BrumLabour are closing libraries, cutting opening hours and harming life chances of our young people @BrumLibraries @BrumLibraryZine
Many youngsters in Birmingham will be denied these life-changing opportunities as @BrumLabour damages the city’s network of community libraries and MPs like @PreetKGillMP stand by. @BrumLibraries @BrumLibraryZine @HallgreenSave

We love that this year @WorldBookDayUK is championing children’s reading choices, encouraging everyone to Read Your Way! We couldn't agree more with them that every reader is different, and there’s no right or wrong way to enjoy reading 🙌 #WorldBookDay
BUY THE INDEPENDENT TODAY! Splendid story about World Book Day & stupid library cuts...
How shameful that Lambeth Council is marking World Book Day with library cuts independent.co.uk/voices/library…
People sometimes say kids don't read any more. But I'm always amazed by the excitement you see on author visits, especially #WorldBookDay. Give kids free choice of what to read, let them follow their excitement wherever it leads - and THEY STILL LOVE BOOKS! (Art: Quentin Blake)
Happy World Book Day! p.s. two days left to get a print of one of my cartoons: guardianprintshop.com/pages/current-…
On #worldbookday2025 we must shout out for free access to books. The destruction of public libraries must be stopped. If people can’t afford books and there are no libraries or book stocks then … 🤷

Public #Libraries are the very best places to visit if you want to #ReadYourWay. Not only are they palaces of books of all different genres and styles, but all those books are completely free! #WorldBookDay2025
