Two #Edinburgh wins at the Nibbies - the British Book Awards - last night, including for Oxgangs Library (working with mobile library service and Saughton to get books to those in Saughton Prison).

On a personal note, utterly delighted to see my chum & former colleague Caden & her team win Indie Bookshop of the year for the Book Lovers Bookshop https://www.thebookseller.com/british-book-awards-content/independent-bookshop-of-the-year

Delighted to learn our small but mighty bookshop, @TheEdinburghBookshop is again on the shortlist for best Indy bookshop in Scotland https://www.thebookseller.com/awards/the-british-book-awards?tab=independent-bookshop-of-the-year

We won last year, and have won a couple of times before, which was fabulous. And even nicer because we're sharing the list with a lot of great Indy bookselling chums all around the country.
