Library Workers/Users aren’t stupid they see through the smokescreen of doublespeak/spin.
They know that “refresh” or “restructuring” = cuts.
They know that self-service, staff-less opening & volunteers = fewer staff.
They know ‘hubs’ is cuts-based.

The ‘Community Hubs’ model is a smokescreen for cuts.
It doesn’t improve libraries it dilutes and undermines them.
Fund all public services properly and let libraries be libraries.
#savelibraries
The disingenuous doublespeak that some Councils use when trying to force through library cuts;
“An opportunity”
“Innovative”
“Community Hubs”
“A refresh”
It’s all very predictable and lazy.
#savelibraries
Can’t believe I have to repeat this again;
Public Libraries without paid/trained Library Workers and/or a statutory basis/remit AREN’T Public Libraries.
They are volunteer-led community centres/bookswaps/Internet Cafes.
This isn’t me being unkind it’s the truth.
#savelibraries
A ‘refresh’
a ‘restructuring’
a ‘transformation’
a ‘re-organisation’
an ‘alternative delivery model’
a ‘new way of working’
a ‘partnership opportunity’
All doublespeak
All disingenuous
All cuts.
#savelibraries
Public Libraries are an easy target for @reformparty_uk and other far-right agitators due to the fact that they are a public service that aims to be welcoming, inclusive & representative to/of ALL members of the community.
They must be defended.

The @librarycongress held an event for the end of #NationalPoetryMonth. U.S. Poet Laureate, Arthur Sze, was joined by U.K.'s Poet Laureate, Simon Armitage.
I was unfamiliar with Mr. Armitage's work before this but, my goodness! do I have a lot of catching up to do. 💞💞
Let me tell you why Cllrs telling people to use libraries or lose them is deeply flawed;
Decades of cuts have left many libraries barely open or staffed or stocked.
Quantitive indicators don’t show the real worth/use.
Many well used libraries have been closed.

Our General Sec, my comrade Shazziah Rock and me at Parliament earlier speaking to MP’s about library cuts 😊✊

@unisontheunion
Library Workers had been threatened by the Head of Service that they risk disciplinary action if they attended this #savelibraries meeting which sadly is routine BUT Connor is a @unisontheunion rep 🤬
@AndreaEganGS
#reinstateconnor
A UNISON libraries rep in Newham has been suspended after speaking at a public meeting opposing 50% cuts.
Trade union reps must be free to defend members and public services.
This looks like an attack on union democracy.
Reinstate Connor.

📚🙏 Saraswati Puja reminder:
When Librarians are removed, libraries get locked, students cry and even Goddess Saraswati weeps.
🕯️ Respect Librarians. Protect knowledge.
