Not all of us who would have wanted to, could make it to London on Monday for the mass lobby to save school libraries. Luckily, quite a few people did. Authors, librarians, readers.
I didn’t even get the t-shirt.
Looks like they had fun, too.
Some people clearly didn’t take it seriously, at all…
I’m hoping it doesn’t say ‘The Best Ardagh’ on this sign.
Thanks to Candy Gourlay for the photos.

Who would get rid of school libraries????? Honestly, some people are just stupid.
Oh, and that dude’s beard is awesome.
Did he pay you to say that?
Looks like you missed some fun in a good cause. But the pictures are some compensation. I do wonder what will happen to libraries in the long run, though.
I see a world of coffeeshops and call centres. That’s all.
I wish I’d been able to come to this. But lovely to see all my chums looking gorgeous in their t shirts. Where can one buy one??
Maybe there are second hand ones going cheap by now… Or we simply break into people’s houses.
