Digital literacy is a key ingredient for #HIW2026 — thanks for all the brilliant work.
The theme for today as part of #HIW2026 is women's health. The @LibraryBoltonft has a variety of clinical and health and wellbeing books on women's health; take a look at our catalogue for these titles and more.

Libraries are incredible ❤️📚
I came to my local library on a Monday night just to borrow books… and walked into a Zumba class instead💃🏽✨
Music playing. People laughing. A space buzzing with community life.
This is what libraries are.
Obviously books on shelves are vital, but warm, welcoming places where people connect, move, learn, and belong 🤝📖
And yet, Newham Libraries could face cuts of up to 50% 😔
Cuts like this don’t just remove services. They will take away safe spaces, opportunities and community lifelines.
If libraries matter to you, please consider sharing and signing the “Save Newham Libraries” petition 🙏
Every voice helps. Every share counts.

PS I've borrowed @tjpower & @neuranne books
