Good morning! It's a bit of a snowy day here in Shetland but Blue Skies are coming - we've sent #SuperSheltie to check it out 🙂shetlandlibrary.bsky.social

Ah bless, we are getting a bit nostalgic about the better days of Twitter. Remembering our beauty parade for library trolleys...

Ooh ❤️ There's not that many trees in Shetland so perhaps we need one of these? 🙂

We were contacted this morning from a rather smug @_Stewart_Bain (formerly of Orkney Library 😒) asking for our reaction to the news that Ann Cleeves is publishing a new Jimmy Perez novel, set in ORKNEY. No comment. #TheTraitors thebookseller.com/rights/pan-sna…

Just a reminder that we are now on Bluesky. shetlandlibrary.bsky.social ❤️

Today is #LibraryShelfieDay Maybe guys who enjoy Nazi salutes should read more books?

Very much looking forward to seeing this film. Thinking of all our US librarian friends just now. #LibrariesAreEssential

There's misinformation There's disinformation Then there's diss-information The third is allowed in relation to Orkney Library

Information is power. Library professionals are concerned about what is going on in the USA.

We’ve been quieter on here lately because we’re…. exploring other environments shall we say! They say that the grass isn’t always greener on the other side… but the sky is certainly bluer! 😉🩵💙 We’re also on The ‘Gram! 😎🤳 #joinusonBluesky #instalibrary

The American Library Association is standing against this political attack on libraries. Find them on Bluesky at amlibraryassoc.bsky.social

Great to hear that Shetland’s own Jen Stout is off to the USA - catch her and her great book ‘Night Train to Odesa’. JD Vance hasn’t been to Ukraine, but Jen sure has 🙂
