I promote public engagement with material from the economic, political & equal rights activists and ideas stored in LSE Library Collections.

Well @LSELibrary keep me working right to the end! Last event last night for the wonderful @OTPFest with great speakers (as ever). Got it up on our YouTube channel (takes a bit of wifi TLC). #LGBTHM22 Goodbye and enjoy! https://t.co/zxJcndmAlT

With thanks to the children and staff @FrithManor for making Sunbeams over the last 2 days. Here’s some of their fantastic art.

Watch this space and @LSENews #LSEFestival for more on how their art and words will be combined on campus. Sunbeams: https://t.co/YECvkDL1Zg

@ArtinTransit1 @LSELibrary @literacyoutloud Given the reports on children's mental health in the news, seems like a good moment to share our Sunbeams - Valuing Children and their voices. We need to do better at listening to them and make next week #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek last: https://t.co/PPmAl9CsRU

Looking forward to the results of the "sunbeam' workshops next week in school for the #LSEfestival2022 with @LSELibrary @ActivismLearn @literacyoutloud. Itching to get making the large design for the festival in June from all the content. #hope #artinschools #creativity

It's my last day @LSElibrary two weeks today so will do a last tweet from this account on 10 February. If you want to follow me personally, I'm on @poisonchallis. Still two fab events and an exciting school project to go on about yet though!

[Debbie @ActivismLearn]

A new colleague introduced me to the word apricity, meaning the warmth of the sun on your skin in winter. From Latin, to apricate is to bask in the sun. Isn't that fantastic? Shoehorning it into @LSELibrary new Sunbeams school project right now!

[Debbie @ActivismLearn]

If of you went to the rather wonderful screening of the Wonder Woman pilot @LSELibrary and talk by Amanda Potter in 2019 (when we did things in person, sob!), check out this CfP on #WonderWoman:

Whoop - some good news! Literary treasures saved for nation and nice to see a distribution rather than just in London institutions: https://t.co/RkfwphXED4

Hi! We're part of the team behind social media at LSE Library 🙂👋.

It's time for us to have a break, so you won't hear from us now until 2022.

Whatever you are doing, best wishes for the rest of the year. Stay safe!

Eglantyne Jebb is remembered #OnThisDay. Jebb was a pioneering activist for the rights of children, drafted the first Declaration of the Rights of the Child (1924) and was founder of @savechildrenuk.
