This has been reshared a lot recently. Many #schoollibrarians are sharing stats which show that reading in their schools is not in decline-quite the reverse. The evidence is clear: having a librarian in school can build and embed a reading culture. Follow us to find out more.

⚠️Reading enjoyment has fallen across all ages.⚠️
The sharpest decline is among pupils aged 11-14 - from 40.4% in 2023 to 30.7% in 2024. As children transition to secondary school, their reading engagement dips - a trend that is worsening.

We had our first book club meetings of the year this week and had 81 pupils across years 7-12 join me. Broken all previous records! The younger pupils read @simonjamesgreen amazing book and here are some of the comments. @ReadingatLLP @uksla

One of my proudest moments was watching Kotryna win this award. Please take a look at the video and consider nominating a pupil, it will change their life. @uksla @CILIPSLG @ReadingatLLP
If you are still deciding whether to put your pupil library assistants in for this fantastic award (deadline 18th Nov libpupilaward.wixsite.com/ho…), perhaps this fabulous video created for us by @pearson last year will help you decide: youtu.be/Kyp9HUIWZ2E?si=YoHi…

This is a great article and I can also say that we have more boys using the library than girls in our school and this has been the case for a while. Boys DO read and they love joining in with library led events.

Hearing from @FloEshalomi MP who says she wouldn’t have passed her GCSES without access to the library. And now as a parent how important they continue to be. And a shout out to librarians as a first point of access to the service. #LibrariesChangeLives

It was a pleasure to be asked to attend this event this afternoon because libraries DO change lives. @CILIPinfo @uksla

Have libraries changed your life?
I'm speaking this afternoon @houseofcommons reception on how libraries changed my life. As a child, I visited my local East Ham Library every Saturday with my Dad & bros.
As UK Libraries Champion @CILIPinfo (2019-21) & ambassador for @readingagency, I will keep shouting on the roof tops about libraries 🗣️
From supporting learning at all ages, to improving digital literacy for the most vulnerable, to equipping people with the skills they need to thrive in the modern economy, libraries are truly engines of social mobility #LibrariesChangeLives

If any schools in Liverpool are interested in booking me for an author visit next year, please let me know. Primaries or secondaries - I love you all equally. x

Just finished my 100th book of the year. Loved @TomPercivalsays The Wrong Shoes and will be recommending when the library opens in September. How many more books can I read before school starts?

As promised we are relocating all of our summer activities and events programme and also our regular schedules to alternative locations so the community doesn’t miss out
The full list can be accessed here liverpool.gov.uk/spelloweven… . We will be adding to this regularly.

I remember being told when bad things happen, look for the people who are on the ground making a difference. Who represent light in the darkness. This morning for me that is the Go Fund Me for Spellow Library in Liverpool - amazing (£43,000 & climbing fast) #wearemanytheyarefew

There are awful hateful things going on. It's easy to feel powerless. But we can help outweigh the bad with the good. Do something good for someone else today. Help someone out. Be kind. Every small act of good fights back.
