Black History Month is drawing to a close, but at the library we celebrate Black history all year round. We make sure we buy diverse and inclusive texts, both fiction and non-fiction, and we continue our journey to decolonise our stock and provide an anti-racist library service.

The library staff from all of our campuses had a fabulous time at Brinsbury campus on Wednesday! We got to groom the horses, paint some pots, have a look at all of the animals in the Animal Centre and go for a wonderful walk in the countryside. @CCLibraryteam @BrightonMETLib1

It was fantastic to welcome Philip to @CcgLibrary yesterday, as our way of marking @WorldBookNight . He left us feeling inspired, enthused, and empowered to use our own life experiences to write creatively. Thank you, Philip.
I really enjoyed my visit to @ccglibrary Chichester College today, talking about my books and doing some creative writing workshops.

Our second display was to commemorate Holocaust Memorial Day. It is imperative to learn about our past so we can have a better future, and as such, Holocaust Memorial Day highlights past holocausts and genocides so that we do not repeat them.
