@NowCounselling Hi Sean, You can contact me on craigmillar.library@edinburgh.gov.uk and mark it F.A.O Hannah, or call the branch and ask for me on 0131 529 5597. Many thanks, Hannah (Development Leader)

@LibrariesNe Good morning. I wish to discuss a concern about a member of your security team, after what I feel was unacceptable and unprofessional conduct towards me online last night, including harassment and intimidation. A contact person would be much appreciated, thanks, Sean

@NowCounselling @CraigmillarCAH @Craigmillar_CSH Hi there Sean so sorry you had this experience. The Library doesn’t open to the public for our services until 10am as our library staff are not yet working. However you should be able to use the space simply to read, and explore. We’ll make sure the building security know this.

I was then told abruptly to leave as the @LibrariesNE wasn’t open yet to public (even though there were several people in). Not great for anyone not least someone who might be struggling to connect with people and places (thankfully I don’t). @CraigmillarCAH @Craigmillar_CSH

Dropped my partner off at work in Craigmillar and thought I would pop in to the local library for 1st time in a while. I thought it looked great and a nice space for study & services. Until a security guard approached me abruptly and said ‘who are you’? So I replied with my name

Today Craigmillar Library have been decorating for Halloween, and we’ve gained a new staff member. Come and visit Claude for romantic luck during spooky season.
