#Egypt: At #COP27, the life of activist Alaa Abdel Fattah is at risk. After prolonged hunger strike @alaa stopped drinking water on 6 Nov. We must call on @AlsisiOfficial to #FreeAlaa before it is too late https://t.co/tmwXrtgSKQ https://t.co/stIxutTqj7 via @AmnestyIreland

@benhabib6 "There are hundreds of countries around the world trading without a deal" you claimed on Claire Byrne's radio show on RTÉ this morning. Only 195 countries in the world. Doesn't inspire confidence in your other claims...

Israel is "mowing the grass" again, and this is how they do it. Anyone particpating in this month's Eurovision song contest just up the road in Tel Aviv should be ashamed of themselves ...

@PhilipArdagh I'm always preaching this to parents in my library! You can read books above their current reading age and they will absorb the sentence construction and the flow of a story painlessly. Seeing a grown-up enjoying reading sends a powerful message☺️

Tomorrow is #WorldAutismAwarenessDay and public libraries are an inclusive community space for all. Call in to your local library to find out about services, books, autism friendly times and sensory toys and equipment for rental #LibrariesIreland #MoreThanJustBooks #RightToRead

I didn’t think it was possible for me to like Robert Smith any more than I already did. I was wrong.

On the "forgotten army" of library staff: make sure to plan staff space carefully when designing new libraries if you want functioning library services! #ASL2019

@michaeljwaldron I'm a librarian, I love a puzzle, old books and letters and Spain, among other things 😀

[Ger Dunne @gfdunne]

@michaeljwaldron Lots of ideas here if it starts with a: https://t.co/gtvInXRYqK I thought maybe a double r after the a?

Unpopular opinion: I think library directors should have to work one desk shift a week, rotating between service points. Understand your library, your staff, your users, then make policy.

@DrJaninaRamirez As I played this, the kitchen clock ticked in perfect sync with the changes (ominously, it felt to me!)
