After navigating the streets of London,
@accessit.bsky.social
librarians have been learning about enabling their borrowers to find their way around their libraries. A session on library maps at our first roadshow of the week provided plenty to think about and act upon.

Share your ideas with us! Chelsea, our Senior Product Manager, let us know that our UK librarians submitted the most Product Ideas last year! You can find the Product Idea form on the Customer Portal. Great to have Chels and Isaac from our New Zealand office on the road with us.

Half-term this week so the ideal time to visit your local independent children's bookshop. Personalised recommendations and great service. There are over 200 on my map so do take a look, and let me know of any I've missed.

Okay, here we go. Health & care staff are no longer allowed a Covid booster, but they're still expected to look after COVID+ patients. NHS/govt is reneging on its duty of care. Staff will become unwell, and patients too will suffer. You know what to do 👇✍️
