We inherited a broken NHS, with millions of people languishing on waiting lists. Their lives on hold. My government is delivering our Plan for Change. Our reforms to elective recovery will end backlogs and provide millions more appointments, making our NHS fit for the future.

Very proud to announce the publication of our new book - Introduction to Healthcare Knowledge and Library Services tinyurl.com/2u37raap in partnership with colleagues @ManMetUni and @NHSEngland Great introduction for aspiring and current information practitioners.

The BBC have suspended Gary Lineker until he apologies and agrees not to post anything critical about the Government on Social Media. If you stand with Gary Lineker against the Government and the BBC. RT and Like this post to show your support for him.

@victorkimathi19 @Geoff_Walton @afcnine @Arsenal Supporting a footy team isn’t about ‘ball’ knowledge it’s about belonging. Anyway I think you have the wrong Geoff Walton btw.

@Geoff_Walton @afcnine @Arsenal @GeoffWaltoniLit you have zero ball knowledge

Wishing you all the best, Matteo 🤝

Dear @conservatives. Really? Are we going here again?

Our first "Forum on Information Literacy" paper has now been published! A review on how #infolit has been leveraged in other disciplines with @alisonhicks0 @GeoffWaltoniLit @CharlieInskip @anlloyd bit.ly/3Nb5YKA

“More than half of adults believe that digital services are not an adequate replacement for traditional libraries according to a new study.” scotsman.com/news/people/su…

Doomed

🚨⚠️ The BBC is under threat. I've signed the @Public_Campaign petition to say to @NadineDorries: stop your attack on our BBC! #SaveOurBBC campaignforthearts.org/petitions/bbc-…

@EricPlatten Me too! Let me know when you have found a good idea on how to stop the nonsense!

@GeoffWaltoniLit Words fail me, better get to my local library and start reading books. Hopefully get some ideas on blocking this claptrap!!

This is unbelievable stuff - or perhaps not given the bizarre conspiracy theories floating around re Covid, the lizard peoples and so on... Librarians, you are the front line against this nonsense... Chant, "Librarians united will never be defeated".

Fake news is bad for society, but could it also be bad for your health? Research by Dr Geoff Walton (@GeoffWaltoniLit) shows that with training, believing fake news can be reversed 👉 bit.ly/3p31WJG.

So, I gave my research papers on information literacy to a creative animator and this is what they did youtube.com/watch?v=V1oo_i…

#GlobalMILWeek event 1: The paths, nodes and edges of information literacy research with @alisonhicks0 @sheilayoshikawa @CharlieInskip @anlloyd @DrewWhitworth1 @GeoffWaltoniLit 28th October, 10am-11am UK time. bit.ly/3lSwIEE

Reminiscing back to 6 years ago when @gordanajugo @GeoffWaltoniLit @Ven_VVE and the amazing Amores Love of Reading project was in its infancy!

Raising NI is wrong and regressive, placing a grossly disproportionate burden on society's youngest and lowest earners. £20k aged 25 = extra £100 a year £50k aged 66 = £0 Landlord with many properties = £0 Tories protecting vested interests at the expense of society's poorest.
