During the last few months. Myself and filmmaker @carlwoodsfilm worked on a project funded by both Libraries Connected and Natural England #culturenature which is now on display at Solihull Library. Working with the Young Archaeologists Group (YAG) we used drones, cameras and even got to map the ground with a TAR 3 earth resistance meter. If you’re passing that way I throughly recommend going to see this exhibition and what the YAG have produced and learnt from this experience by using technology whilst being outside in nature, in what at times were very very wet conditions. Their enthusiasm was never dampened unlike our equipment 🤣. See next post for more pics. #naturalengland #librariesconnected #drones #photography #solihull #exhibition #yag #archaeologist #archeology #tar3 #earth #geologist #geology #history #localhistory #library #film #project

Happy #WorldBookDay! We can’t wait to see pics of you in your costumes, just like amazing Alicia here at #LongSuttonLibrary who used one of our WBD Emergency packs to transform themselves into Greg Heffley from the Diary of a Wimpy Kid books! #ACEFunded #LibrariesConnected

This Thursday, will your kids be wearing the costumes they created at our #WorldBookDay costume creator sessions? When they look as good as the ones the children made at #GainsboroughLibrary, we think it would be rude not to! #ACEFunded #LibrariesConnected

With only one week to go until #WorldBookDay, check out our costume swap rails at all 14 of our core libraries! If you missed out on a pre made costume or feeling creative, pick up one of our emergency packs. They are packed full of fab ideas #ACEFunded #LibrariesConnected

We had a fab time this half term helping you create your #WorldBookDay costumes! #StamfordLibray even received a surprise visit from famous author Hannah Gold. Take a look at our gallery of characters. Can you spot yourself?! #ACEFunded #LibrariesConnected
