Useful & fascinating meeting today with @valerie_kov, head of Filter, 🇺🇦's national media literacy project, which has achieved huge amounts in a short time. UK can learn much from their experience in promoting & developing #medialiteracy at national level https://t.co/64A7oUcXCx

Fascinating article on how librarians & archivists are in the front line in 🇺🇦, fighting in a very real sense for cultural survival. This is a real cultural war, waged by a ruthless invading country bent on totalitarian destruction of heritage https://t.co/r1Mg5Slr0y

Once again, public libraries find themselves in grave peril from the latest round of austerity measures. Who, outside the library world, will rise to defend them in the face of yet more government-ordained axe-wielding?

[Isobel Hunter MBE @HunterIsobel]

“The scale of the savings that libraries need to make and also the impact of inflationary costs means that these aren't savings that can be found down the back of the sofa or trimming little bits here and there. It is a really serious situation." https://t.co/8TnjdOncJm

'A Day in the Life', insightful report from @Ofcom MSOM programme, highlighting how #MediaLiteracy relates to different aspects of people's lives & what it means to them in practice in different contexts, with detailed case studies to illustrate this https://t.co/Rn9yTZanbU

Nice summary by @Sarahinthelib of the first transnational meeting of the @BRIDGEinfolit project on information literacy in schools for 8-11 year olds. Personally, I didn't partake in any Sangria, but there were other compensations! https://t.co/c0xb8F81c2

UK Govt @DCMS has announced £1m package for 17 projects addressing #medialiteracy. Big step in devt of capacity-building & evidence base. Projects will work with variety of grps incl school students, parents, older people, carers & vulnerable communities https://t.co/t45edw6QQC

@JulianMcDougall Thanks @JulianMcDougall This consultation seems to be for MEA members. Can non-members respond too?

[Stéphane@InformAll @stephgold7]

@PhMarliere On occasion I've wondered a bit fancifully about whether he might approach Ségolère Royal. She's a complete loose cannon whose bearings (and opportunism) are all over the place, but she ticks some of the boxes. Unlikely, but who knows!

These are Ukrainian librarians!

As reported in Nature Human Behaviour, in the context of Covid, fact-checks & corrective information reduce false beliefs, but only temporarily, with no durable effect on accuracy of people's beliefs. This isn't cheerful reading #infolit #disinformation https://t.co/u05IvJK4Bl
