Useful first meeting yesterday of the DCMS library sub group of the Recovery Task Force. We were able to highlight some outstanding queries on how to safely manage the library environment
My mum was delighted to receive a keep-in-touch call yesterday from her local library. She’s already looking forward to the call next week as she finds the long days in isolation can get lonely. Thank you @leedslibraries - this simple thing made an enormous difference!
Do you miss chatting to our lovely staff? We're here to help!
Every Monday to Friday, 10am-4pm we'll have a friendly librarian on hand to help with book recommendations or finding information and resources. Just reply to this post or send us a direct message. #AskALibrarian
You think you're having a bad week? My poor colleague has just been in to do her weekly check of the library building. The cleaner has stared deep cleaning the space (so far, so good) and has cleaned the shelves but has put 18.5 bays of books back on IN SIZE ORDER.
Thank goodness for @leedslibraries For now at least, somewhere to walk to at lunchtime as a break from working from home. I returned these fantastic books today and borrowed a few more.
Do spare a thought for all those public library staff still out there serving communities in the midst of all this - like many others they don’t have the option to work from home but often missed off the lists of public servants & are a massive lifeline for many #lovelibraries ❤️
