Look out for our new Library Outpost in the Orchard Building! If you forget your reading book for an English lesson, you can nip out and borrow one of these…

Great to see Rich & Sam @ The Marchmont Workshop complete a commission for 6 Bedales chairs & a hayrake table in the spirit of the arts & crafts movement/ Ernest Gimson. Gorgeous! 🙏💚💥

'We believe that school libraries should be the central resource of the school, open every day and staffed by a trained and full-time librarian. We urge the Council to reconsider this decision.' A @CILIPScotland statement to @nlcpeople: cilips.org.uk/school-librari…

Yesterday was the anniversary of Sophia Duleep Singh’s death. She was a Suffragette and part of the Women’s Tax Resistance League (alongside Bedales’ own Amy Badley). To learn more, we recommend borrowing @tweeter_anita’s brilliant book from the library… #Revolutionary
This important and troubling book by @johannhari101 explains how our children are being harmed by 'the collapse of sustained reading'.
Excited to see @AdamRutherford give the Eckersley Lecture at @BedalesEvents on Friday? Borrow one of his books from the library so you're ready for action! 🧑🔬📚
Check out our mini book decorations, made for the library Christmas tree by Junior Lit Soc! #schoollibrary
Today's library book of the day is a new one: Demystifying Disability by @emily_ladau! Great for the Block 3 project 'What Does It Mean to Belong?', but will definitely be used more widely than that!
Merlin's beard! We had palm reading, mandrake making and more at our Hogwarts evening last night, including a truly magical potions display from a pair muggles might know as 'chemistry teachers'... 🧪🔮✨ Thanks to all the witches and wizards who helped out! #schoollibrary

@BedalesLibrary One for the shelves!
My publishers are unveiling the cover of my autobiography this morning. The book's called "Odd Boy Out" & will be published by @MichaelJBooks on 16 September - but you can pre-order a signed copy from a range of suppliers right now . . . linktr.ee/GylesBrandreth
Can't wait to read Princes of the Renaissance by @BedalesSchool alumna Mary Hollingsworth. Also want to congratulate @HoZ_Books for the sumptuous design and superb production quality. I feel they're throwing down the gauntlet to other publishers. This is how books should be made.
