A lovely piece by the author Ande Pliego about the libraries that are particularly close to her heart, and aspects of those libraries appear in her new novel 'The Library After Dark', a book that I don't think is really up my street, but that I might try just for its love of libraries.

I made a strategic mistake while running errands by foot: went first to the library and gave the Kids free range to check out books.

Hauling a backpack stuffed to the brim with books did result in moderate shoulder pain. ouch.

It's World Book Day (UK & Ireland)! 🌍📚🤩

For young people brandishing book tokens today, there are some marvellous queer-themed science and nature books out there . . . 🏳️‍🌈 🦆  🦋

I worked from a London library today. In the 4 hours I was there I chatted with a chap that has nowhere to live, “paid it forward” at the cafe and loaned my phone charger to a chap for whom English wasn’t a first language.

Libraries are such important civic spaces. My heart is full. #LoveLibraries

At the LocHal.nl public library space in #Tilburg, the tallest curtains I have ever seen can be used to gracefully cordon off an auditorium space when needed.
We used this during #Turtlestitch10 Fest.

(Zoom in an check out how the tables at the front are made!)

Bagged a #LibraryBingo with @tabisw yesterday at #Newcastle City Library.

Glass fronted with six floor atrium meant it was incredibly light. Chatty (with us) staff and people in using the space even though it was early on a Saturday. #LoveLibraries
