“Librarians share the best ways to rediscover reading, make it a regular habit – and their tips for the most unputdownable books” theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2…
Reading historical books is educational *and* empathy-building! Use these 2024 #ReadForEmpathy books to help young people uncover landmark moments in time, and understand the feelings of those who lived through them. #EmpathyDay empathylab.uk/RFE-2024
1 in 3 people don’t regularly read for pleasure. We want to change this by encouraging everyone to read a book today to celebrate @WorldBookNight from @readingagency. What are you reading today? Find inspiration from this year's booklist: worldbooknight.org/books #WorldBookNight

Libraries change lives. Changed mine when I was young & had no money to buy books. Im an author today bcoz of them. They're NOT a lifestyle choice for govns. @The_CWA Dagger in the Library is picked by librarians. Thank you & delighted to be on list. @libsconnected @CILIPinfo
So many successful people tell of #libraries as a refuge and as their #streetcorneruniversity Now, so many people also depend on the free WiFi and tech, and support for essential online daily living. Where if not the public library? @PeterStefanovi2 @carolvorders @ReidFoundation
When I was growing up we had no money to buy books. All I had was my local library. I spent hundreds of hours in it. But for that library I might never have become a lawyer. A thousand have closed under Conservative Governments. It’s almost like they don’t want us to read

Browsing for books to read at my local library in Stratford @NewhamLibraries. But I feel overwhelmed as there's so many good books I want to read, it's so hard to pick! Do you ever get this feeling? Is there a word for being overwhelmed by too many good choices (in a library)?!
