Council meeting underway. Although we're item 8 on the agenda so don't expect any news for a while...
Beautiful morning here in Stafford. Let's hope the petition debate produces a just result. #Lichfield #library
Samuel just heard @StaffordshireCC's plans for Lichfield Library. No wonder he looks glum... #SaveLichfieldLibrary
49 days, 395 pages, 6324 signatures, 1 petition handed in. Now bring on the council debate! #SaveLichfieldLibrary
What is a library without trained librarians? (Clue: it's not a library). #SaveLibraries (pic: @jabberworks)
Dear @StaffordshireCC. Stop calling them "savings". They're CUTS, pure and simple. #SaveLichfieldLibrary
If you sell a building to be turned into private flats, who are you "safeguarding" it for? #SaveLichfieldLibrary
We want a library that's bold and ambitious not one whose goal is "best value". Please sign! you.38degrees.org.uk/petitio…
We need 5000 signatures or more to force @StaffordshireCC to debate our petition. Guess what we've got...
How about stashing some money in onshore learning havens, Mr Cameron? #SaveLibraries #SaveLichfieldLibrary
"The internet can't replace a trained librarian." #SaveLibraries
(Another splendid poster from @jabberworks!)
.@StaffordshireCC say selling historic Friary building in Lichfield is "safeguarding" it. No, it's just selling it.
A library without professional librarians is just a room full of books. #SaveLibraries #SaveLichfieldLibrary
Help @jk_rowling! Council want to sell Lichfield's own 'Hogwarts' library! you.38degrees.org.uk/petitio… #SaveLibraries
A little perspective for those who think libraries are irrelevant. (Thanks @ned_potter).

Volunteer librarians. What next? Volunteer teachers? Nurses? Police? Unacceptable.
