Well done @warkslibraries - so proud of the work you do for local residences.
Library of the Year Regional & Country Winner for Midlands is @Warwickshiresls! “The children have shown more interest in books and reading,” said one teacher after taking part in their 'Chatterbooks for Reluctant Readers' scheme.

"With stunning drawings by Emily Sutton […] this could be an ideal means for children to delight the grownups on Christmas afternoon." @TelegraphBooks We couldn't agree more with this wonderful review of Shakespeare's First Folio for the Daily Telegraph! ✨ @ShakespeareBT

Books, reading & young people with @ManonSteffanRos at @ASCELUK: Power of translation, poetry is in our everyday language. Reader finding something in the writing & writer returning something that is lost. Books are a mirror, you feed into what you are reading. #ASCELWOW24
