Dismayed to hear about North Lanarkshire Council's decision to remove school librarian posts. There is a petition set up at https://t.co/XcrSc8Gk5T and you can read more here:

[CILIPScotland @CILIPScotland]

'We believe that school libraries should be the central resource of the school, open every day and staffed by a trained and full-time librarian. We urge the Council to reconsider this decision.' A @CILIPScotland statement to @nlcpeople: https://t.co/d4nx3F4yq2
