Duluth Public Library

‘Book lovers will understand me, and they will know too that part of the pleasure of a library lies in its very existence.’ Jan Morris, Pleasures of a Tangled Life, 1989

The only thing better than getting a free book from the library is WINNING a FREE book about THE LIBRARY! We have 3 copies of The Library - A Fragile History to give away. To #WIN you need to RT and FOLLOW @ProfileBooks and @OrkneyLibrary. Runs until Wednesday 5th October.

"Librarians are not trying to force your children to read material you don’t want them to read. They are fulfilling their role as information professionals tasked with upholding the constitutional promise of access to information for all." wapo.st/3Sw4opB
