"The Roadshow was fantastic! I found my tribe..." Thinking about genrefying? Seeking dashboard ideas? Or are you looking to chat with members of your Accessit 'tribe', as one of our previous attendees so eloquently put it. Find yours at our upcoming venues! accessitlibrary.com/roadshow-uk/

A fitting venue to finish a glorious week of learning with librarians. Thank you to @exeterschool.bsky.social for hosting today's last leg of our South West tour. Nottingham and Manchester up next - there's still time to sign up here! accessitlibrary.com/roadshow-uk/

One of the main themes of the Roadshow is Collaboration. Librarians at all venues this week have loved hearing from our guest speaker from Browns Books about the role they can play in #readingforpleasure.

Our brilliant panellists have lit up each of our Roadshow events this week. A huge thanks to our librarians at @colytongrammar.bsky.social and The Woodroffe School for sharing their ideas and inspiration in Exeter today. #AccessitLibrarians #AccessitAmbassadors

Lots of lovely chats today about the impact librarians can have. A huge thanks to two of our own, from Bournemouth School and St Anne's Catholic School and Sixth Form, for sharing their inspiring work. #learningtogether #librarians

Day 2 of the Roadshow, this time in sunny Fareham! Hoping today's sequel is as much fun as yesterday's first instalment. Half of our attendees are currently hearing from our collaborative partners at Browns, while the rest of our librarians are building their Visual Search sections!

Congratulations to all the shortlisted authors and illustrators! Our web app technicians will now be finalising our #Carnegies2025 dashboard, keep an eye out for it arriving on ALeC.

What a fantastic first day on the road! It was lovely meeting so many of our Bristol-based librarians - the show now moves onto Fareham. There's still time to book if we're heading to a location near you. accessitlibrary.com/roadshow/

A fantastic panel session with our librarians at Balcarras School and Wycliffe College. Hearing real-life experiences from current Accessit users is so valuable to attendees - and to us! A huge thank you to our Accessit Ambassadors! #CPD #ProfessionalDevelopment

After months of excited planning, we're so thrilled to kick off our Roadshow tour of the UK in Bristol! Lots of fun sessions pencilled in for librarians today, in collaboration with our friends at Browns and @renlearnuk.bsky.social #AccessitLibrary #CPD #ProfessionalDevelopment #librarians
