"Where do we go from here? Library campaigners' trust in public officials and elected representatives is at an all-time low...Proper accountability and clear communication would certainly be good starting points. Sadly these qualities are in short supply." - @slipshodspeller.bsky.social in the P&J

It’s worth picking up a copy of the Press & Journal tomorrow as @slipshodspeller.bsky.social has written a column commenting on the most recent update of Aberdeen City Council’s plans for library services in Aberdeen - which are concerningly baffling to understand.
