I keep thinking how 3 little girls were killed & more were hurt & traumatised, & instead of talking about their precious lives, we are being forced to focus on violent entitled white men burning cars & towns, who don’t give a shit about women’s & girls’ safety.

The Libraries for Primaries campaign has recorded its 1,000th opening, with organisers targeting 2028 to reach the remaining 1,900 primary schools in Britain that have no library or dedicated reading space 👇 thebookseller.com/spotlight/…

National reading campaign 'Libraries for Primaries' chases target

One thousand libraries down, 1,900 to go as the Libraries for Primaries campaign looks to kick for the finish line in its goal to launch reading for pleasure spaces in every school in the UK.

📢 BIG PROJECT CLAXON! 📢 VF is looking for a big space for the whole of Aug and into Sep 2025 in Edinburgh - as central as possible. A warehouse space would be perfect: 19m x 14m, and a height clearance of 5m. Anyone got one of those lying around? 📨[email protected]
