Watching @JoeCavalliPrice on @BBCNews talking about music in hospices. Incredible. I’m lucky to have seen its impact myself. It can feel visceral at times with raw emotion and sheer joy triggered by the music. Thank you!
Tony Lynes was an important figure in setting up @CYMLibrary as a charity, adding as a volunteer and trustee for many years. Current volunteer (and ex-trustee) Peter Smith attended this week's lecture. Peter worked with Tony for many years at CYM Library.
Great turnout to remember Tony Lynes and his legacy - research and community campaigning. Thank you to Professor Frank Kelly @cllrdoradf @SuecharlieSmith @lb_southwark @PartnershipSWK @HWSouthwark @alzheimerssoc

Happy 89th birthday yesterday to the wonderful @JulieAndrews ! We’ll listen to these words from our MD @ClareFOliver and channel Maria from @SoundofMusic in our Christmas on Broadway medley tonight #myfavouritethings
Big day today: We have finally gone live with our new record-keeping system, using AirTable. This should streamline our internal processes and provide us with better access to data about our requests and loans. It's been in preparation for many months so good to see it in action.
