Have you signed up for our author event with William Hussey this week? A free event for school and youth librarians. Having just finished his fantastic new book The Boy I Love, we have to say it's not to missed!

Do not mess with librarians. They let complete strangers borrow their books. For a living. Even the hardcovers. They are so much stronger than you know.

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Dear libraries,
We love you! ❤️

We celebrated our love of libraries with not one, but two brilliant Bookbug sessions at Montrose Library this morning.

Did anyone catch SLGS committee member and superstar librarian @emmagrey.bsky.social on the news recently talking about ethical and responsible use of AI?
So exciting to see us on STV news last night talking about our involvement in the Generative Artificial Intelligence Skills in Schools (GenAISis) project with Robert Gordon University & CILIPS, funded by ResponsibleAI UK 💻 🤖
