This #LibrariesWeek, I’m celebrating our local libraries and
the vital role they play in supporting our communities.
Libraries are so much more than books, they help people get back into work and offer welcoming spaces to all.
As MP, I use libraries regularly as places I can meet constituents.

It's National Libraries Week in the UK. One of the main characters in #WhatWeLeftBehind is library assistant Dodie Fitznorton, who aspires to be a senior librarian one day. She loves introducing the #evacuee children to books they'll enjoy. #LibrariesWeek #historicalfiction #WW2

Why it’s good to indulge yourself in (unjustifiable) luxuries I've recently taken out a subscription ( posh word for membership ) to the Portico library in Manchester after I was invited to lunch there...

Remembering why I 'upgraded' my access to a very special library (@porticolibrary.bsky.social) as part of celebrating it being #LibrariesWeek - thirdsectorexpert.blogspot.com/2011/08/why-...

Wow! We have major tablecloth envy!

What a great stand -we hope you had some great conversations 😊, and happy #LibrariesWeek!

As part of celebrating libraries (it is #LibrariesWeek after all!), a reminder of how they don't just change lives, but that they also help save communities, businesses, charities, and all of us!
