@FWWcartoonPip Thanks! Sorry I've only just seen this. I don't get time to loiter on Twitter as much as I used to... Hope all is well with you :)

@easyGym Okay, cheers for the information.

@easyGym Hello, visiting Bradford next weekend and hoping to work out there. can I pay on the door for a day pass or must I buy one online in advance?

[George Bray @NexGenGB]

@hipporebecca Gotchya :P

[George Bray @NexGenGB]

@hipporebecca What characteristics gave them away as a librarian?

[George Bray @NexGenGB]

.@research_uk @wellcometrust Something to investigate? https://t.co/5ZrYWwPerw

@AnneWelsh I think library staff here have their pensions provided by the local authorities. Thanks for the links and advice :)

[George Bray @NexGenGB]

@AnneWelsh But it seems to be just for academic research staff, and for consultation only. Not sure what that means in practice for me, really. I'll probably just check out UNISON again.

[George Bray @NexGenGB]

@AnneWelsh Oh wait, no, there it is *checking another list*

[George Bray @NexGenGB]

@AnneWelsh I don't think UCU is recognised by RGU; it only lists EIS and UNISON on the intranet. I did start looking at UNISON a while back, but I think I got distracted and forgot about it. I'll take another look!

[George Bray @NexGenGB]

@AnneWelsh All good here, thanks - hope likewise for yourself.

No idea about the vote - library staff certainly don't seem to have been involved in any discussions, so the first I even heard about the matter was catching up on Twitter the other day.

[George Bray @NexGenGB]

@AnneWelsh I hope the strike is going well! Nothing happening at RGU, but apparently there are people striking at "the other Aberdeen university".

@moananddrone Hello! I assume this was sent before the e-mail you sent me? Or is there another issue?

Is anyone interested in contributing to an exhibition about the social/political status of libraries? "The House that Heals the Soul" will be hosted at The Tetley in Leeds (UK), but being there in person is not essential! - https://t.co/Z0RZkDEK0Z @The_Tetley

Anyone know of a librarian-/information worker-specific LGBT+ group, preferably based in London or the UK? If so, please let us and @kat__olivia know! Thanks :)
