Swiss Cottage library is 60 years old and I was very excited to be invited along to her birthday party and launch of the new children's library.
The children's library has loads of neat accessibility features and even Wurlitzer jukebox that plays audiobooks!
Massive well done to the team!

200 years ago, Louis Braille invented the 6-dot tactile written code that would become known as braille.
Here’s what my first name would look like in braille. Happy #Braille200!

One thing I'm especially loving as part of #Braille200 is that whenever I'm lucky enough to go to a library in a different part of the country to celebrate we get to create some #BrailleBhajis!
We only had enough to spell (capital B) Brl 200 but you get the idea.
P.S Everything got eaten.
