We just lost someone I would never in a million years have been expected to be friends with, or probably even to have made peace with... A larger than life 'Marmite' character, controversial, sometimes infuriating, but terribly witty, sharp and fun. And capable of extreme kindness, empathy and charm, especially in private. Gone far too soon. Desperately sad news 💔

Do you use your library? My discussion on BBC about how libraries provide value for money and also environmental benefits due to books being used again and again. As former @CILIPinfo libraries champion & current @readingagency charity ambassador, I will always use my voice to speak up for libraries. #Library #Book #BookWorm #Reading #librarylife #books #Bookstagram
