Up to 17 #Bristol libraries could be closed in new @BristolCouncil plans to save £4.7m. More @itvwestcountry at 6 with @CaronBellITV

Community-run libraries are part of the degradation of the service

Our friend, Banner. We only knew you for such a short time (only one day), but you spoke for all of us. #bannerComeBack

[Save Hanham Library @SaveHanhamLib]

Wherever you are, we miss you! Come back to where you belong. In front of the library reminding the community what we lost. #bannerComeBack

[Save Hanham Library @SaveHanhamLib]

Maybe our banner went to one of the great libraries of the world (which aren't getting cut by 38%). #bannerComeHome

[Save Hanham Library @SaveHanhamLib]

Perhaps the small mindedness of those cutting hours by 38% (the most in all South Glos) was too much, it needed to wander. #bannerComeHome

[Save Hanham Library @SaveHanhamLib]

Perhaps banner just wanted to see the world it had read about in all the books it found in Hanham Library #bannerComeHome

[Save Hanham Library @SaveHanhamLib]

Banner was also a keen skiier, who loved the mountains and properly funded libraries! #bannerComeHome #whoosh

Here's a photo of the banner in happier times, on holiday. #bannerComeHome #missing #soSad

If you're walking past the library today on your way to the polling station, be sure to check out our snazzy new banner!

In #Iraq, in the book market, books remain in the street at night because Iraqis say: the reader does not steal and the thief does not read

Library cuts are currently going hand-in-hand with school cuts. Join the South Glos Resistance! @FairFundSGlos https://t.co/x1eIB8GSl8

Neither children's books nor young adult titles work well in tech form. Both of these audiences are large users of libraries.
