@GlasgowLib @BattlefieldPS @GlasgowLib thank you so much for sharing your wonderful collections and expertise with us! We all had a fantastic time and it certainly will be an experience the children will remember - they are already eagerly talking about their hopes to return with their families!

@BattlefieldPS We were so impressed by the amazing young people from Battlefield Primary! We're so glad you enjoyed your visit. :)

Highlight of the school year to end this wonderful cohort of children's tenure as our Librarian Team with a trip to Special Collections at The Mitchell Library ❤️📚 it has been such a privilege to incite the same adoration I have for manuscripts & rare books in these children ❤️

Never forget: READING FOR PLEASURE has the biggest positive impact of any factor on children's life chances. So whatever else you do, please never stop encouraging kids to read the things they love. There is nothing more important! #literacy (Art: Bill Watterson)
