"Librarians face an urgent challenge in increasing the diversity and inclusiveness of our profession, our collections and our spaces. CILIP’s new position paper offers a bold vision for how we can start to address these vital issues." Liz Jolly #ChangingLives

Another day another HR professional in a Multi-Academy Trust strongly asserting that 'schools don't need #librarians'. I am sick of this - where does this view come from and how do we counter it to avoid disadvantaging generations of kids?

This #GE2019 Election Day I'd like to say a massive thank you on behalf of CILIP and our profession to the staff Commons Library - you have been a beacon of dispassionate, rational analysis and evidence MT @PennyYoungHoC

Looking for a public library willing to host a Guardian journalist for a day outside London to find out what a modern library service is all about. They want to understand the challenges as well as the ways in which we impact on users. Pls let me know ASAP if interested!!

Story for you - Newsnight are exploring the transformative work of librarians because one of their team met two library staff at a party and couldn't believe what they told her about the reality of their jobs. We can't assume people know & must never miss a chance to tell them.
