Library Workers/Users aren’t stupid they see through the smokescreen of doublespeak/spin. They know that “refresh” or “restructuring” = cuts. They know that self-service, staff-less opening & volunteers = fewer staff. They know ‘hubs’ is cuts-based. #savelibraries

Wish more libraries did this!
Reduce, reuse, recycle! ♻️ Our libraries actively recycle what we can - whether that's paper for scrap, recycling hearing aid batteries or using our recycling centres like Lorraine! We even recycle withdrawn books through a recycling scheme or crafting! #GreenLibrariesWeek

We are so sad to learn of the passing of the pre-eminent Scottish poet, Douglas Dunn, whom Faber published for over fifty years, a poet others admired, turned to, learnt from and loved. Our thoughts are with his family and friends.
