"I am acutely aware that my own family had not had the means to fund my @NottsHigh education. My father was a primary school teacher & my mother a housewife"

We love seeing heads of educational institutions deem access to books as "essential". 👏🏼
These #TuesdayThoughts from @Edgehill Vice Chancellor, Dr John Cater, stress the opportunities that books can unlock.
Libraries provide this access, which is why they're so important. 💜

You can't help respecting anybody who can spell TUESDAY, even if he doesn't spell it right; but spelling isn't everything. There are days when spelling Tuesday simply doesn't count. ~A.A. Milne #TuesdayThoughts
