I hope it helps!
Kia kaha e te whānau!
As a bullied kid with undiagnosed nuerospiciness, my library was a safe space that fostered a great love of books and literally gave me physical safety.
People need spaces, books and connection both physical and digital.

I grew up in my library.
It has been there when I needed it...when I needed a computer, a job, WiFi, and even electricity.
It has been there when I needed a place to be.
It has always welcomed me home with opened arms.
Where would YOU be without your library?

Libby and Hoopla are the BEST KEPT SECRETS that your librarians are trying to tell you about! Stop spending money on audible (Bezos doesn't need your $) and get them free from your library!

A little story for a wet Friday night. Near my house I found a wallet in the road. When opening it I found a bank card, some cash, a library and a youth club card. And also a front door key. The person who dropped it is 14 and could be locked out so I set out to find him….1/6

For some in UK's African Caribbean and Asian communities, a library is a second home. #librariessavelives #librarylife #handsworthlibrary

It is unfortunate that you don't realize how much our children and adult community members depend on a well qualified librarian. Perhaps you could spend a day in one to understand. #librariessavelives #schoollibrarians

This copy is MINE! Library Girl is a children's book about how @Nancy_Pearl developed her super powers as America's Most Celebrated Librarian. It's utterly charming, and many of us who were shy children and enthusiastic readers will smile while sharing it. #librariessavelives
