You can squeeze a lot out of one school trip! In fact, we’d say with the right planning, you can get a whole terms worth of work out of just one.

A young person’s (or group of young people) experience in a library can make or break their lifelong relationship with arts and culture.

"Libraries should capitalise on appeal as community hubs, report recommends..."

We agree. This is why we made I’m a Teenager, Get Me Into There!

With the correct support, libraries can transform into welcoming, inclusive environments that young people feel welcome within. [1/2]

[Arts Professional @ArtsPro]

A new report examining the reasons people don't use their local libraries has suggested that barriers to access include limited opening hours, a lack of parking facilities and confusing websites https://t.co/8bEgVpDi2T
