Have you signed up for our author event with @WHusseyAuthor this week? A free event for school and youth librarians. Having just finished his fantastic new book The Boy I Love, we have to say it's not to missed! https://t.co/FBBJrYLKu3...
Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Dear libraries,
We love you! ❤️
We celebrated our love of libraries with not one, but two Bookbug sessions at Montrose Library this morning. Thank you, Avril; you’re a star!

CILIP Scotland are delighted to be supporting the launch of the #LoveLibraries campaign. As part of the campaign we are hosting a range of inspiring case studies, have a read & help celebrate the difference Scotland's libraries and librarians make - https://t.co/jZJ8WdAtDG
Threatened Aberdeenshire libraries saved - whilst we still have concerns over community ownership plans for some of the libraries, we are delighted to see pressure pay off and the level of cuts initially proposed being rolled back @CILIPinfo@publiclibnews https://t.co/C4wk77mlCC
It was wonderful to join the National Library today to help celebrate their centenary, and thanks to @guardian for speaking to us about the importance of protecting libraries, on a very positive day for culture in Scotland https://t.co/OqoocvxqQ4
We made a film with @scottishbktrust about their brilliant new Story Deck resource! Further information and full film here: https://t.co/3fwFK8JzfV
So proud of the S1 pupils who helped make this happen! 👏🏼#FORBeingTheBestYouCan@ForAcad
Scotland now has fewer schools with a librarian than the rest of the UK, this needs to change. If any MSPs would like to find out more about the impact of school librarians and libraries come and chat to us, last day in @ScotParl
Such a pleasure to speak with @AnasSarwar today about the vital value of strong school library services to children’s attainment, mental wellbeing, critical thinking skills and more. Thank you for stopping by the CILIPS @ScotParl stall!
CILIPS are thrilled to be speaking out for school libraries @ScotParl this week, setting out our stall of ABCs (plus Ds and Es) on why school librarians deserve support, recognition and protection. Engage with the evidence here and please say hello, MSPs! https://t.co/CdWYlu6y6T
School libraries and librarians are essential but need protection and support. We are in the Scottish Parliament this week making that clear (plus we have library baubles)
@LibraryWesthill@ccb_library 😂 I confess I was too annoyed to continue and have picked up something else. Maybe I’ll return to it when I have recovered…
‘research suggests that school libraries, aside from supporting and strengthening pupils' academic achievement, also play a vital role in supporting pupil wellbeing’

We need books and ideas, and we need our safe and trusted institutions to be robust - our article supporting libraries, and the @scottishbktrust and @heraldscotland Christmas Appeal https://t.co/ORgeCaZSM0 @CILIPinfo@publiclibnews
"Local authorities say fewer people are using libraries". This is misleading, when investment is made then usage shoots up, as we have seen in Paisley. They are integral to literacy and many more things as @GGallerina describes so well here (2 mins in) https://t.co/jJrQlLbI4p
