Thank you to Adrienne, Julie, Kim and the Libraries NI team for making Isobel Hunter MBE and my visit so enjoyable and valuable. Today’s visits to Belfast Central, Shankill, Falls Road and Holywood libraries really illustrated the rich and diverse range of services they offer.

We had a really inspiring visit to @librariesNI. Belfast has some beautiful public libraries - not least the majestic central library. I was blown away by the stunning window at Shankhill Library. True palaces of the people!

Thank you to everyone who has donated to our Ukraine mobile #Library crowdfunder this week (and so far). We are within touching distance of £3,500. Can you help us get there by the end of this week? crowdfunder.co.uk/p/mobile-libra…

Inspiring visits today to Bangor, Whitehead and Hollywood libraries. Three very different communities and what shines through is the friendliness of the staff and how welcoming their libraries are (and look at how lovely the chess area is in Bangor library!) Libraries NI

Starting second day of our visit to Belfast, after an invaluable first day. Wonderful to hear how the team are working with communities to make their libraries relevant, well used and buzzing with life!
