@SueLaceybryant very deserving of the @CILIPHLG Cyril Barnard award joining an illustrious list of previous health librarian recipients #HLG2004

I've not considered involved the charity sector & school libraries in any #HIW2025 activities. #HLG2024

What does a librarian do... in two sentences. A slightly unfair question to ask a 7 year old! #HLG2024

@SueLaceybryant @MichaelRosenYes @CILIPHLG Moving and inspiring, a great humourous take on some dark times 💙

[HLG SIG @CILIPHLG]

So honoured to have @MichaelRosenYes at #HLG2024 sharing his experiences by reading excerpts from three of his books including “The Advantages of Nearly Dying” all about his experiences of being ill during the #covidpandemic

[Michael Rosen 💙💙🎓🎓 NICE 爷爷 @MichaelRosenYes]

This morning I'm talking to NHS librarians at their conference at the Royal College of Physicians in London about my experiences as a patient, though I feel I'll have to say that I didn't borrow any books while I was in a coma. But I think they'll know that.

[Doug Knock @KnockDoug]

@MichaelRosenYes Thank you for an incredibly bright and humorous perspective on a dark time #HLG2024

@RuthCarlyle Make the most of policies as levers to help embed libraries and make them indispensable by linking into both existing and new ones. #HLG2024
