This week we hosted a delegation from the University of Mosul @cl_uomas part of their visit to Northern Ireland Assembly. Around one million books and rare manuscripts from the library were burnt when ISIS were in control of the city (June 2014- January 2017)

1/ This year my school library has loaned more books than ever before. I’ve spent 2 years building up a collection of books that the kids actually want to read - comedy, romance & crime are our most popular genres, comics the most popular medium. Years 7, 8 & 9

A #school #librarian can make a huge difference. They will invest in comic books and manga and novels not found on supermarket shelves. They will bring in authors and generate enthusiasm around #readingforpleasure. They will make the #library the most popular place in the school

Etymology of the day is 'on tenterhooks' (not 'tenderhooks'): tenters, once a common sight, are wooden frames on which freshly milled cloth is stretched so that it dries without shrinking. To be on tenterhooks is to be as tense and taut as the cloth itself.

So sad to hear that Anna Lo has died today. A real trailblazer whose passion for People, Place and Planet shone out if her. We will all miss her pioneering determination and her wit and wisdom.

Well the 'how do you arrange your bookshelves' question on #TheRestIsEntertainment has caused uproar. Thanks for all the photos, and I'm glad that my solution of sorting books by size seems to be more popular than Marina Hyde's arcane system. Do keep sending us your photos!
