#libraries are the beating heart not just of our communities, our schools or our colleges. They're the beating heart of our constitutional democracy.

A democratic society is one where every individual is empowered to exercise their vote with judgement & care based on evidence.

Glad to see that the Energy Bill Relief Scheme Will provide relief for hard-pressed organisations facing significant increases. @CILIPinfo will seek assurances that it includes #libraries within the Local Government estate. https://www.gov.uk/guidance/energy-bill-relief-scheme-help-for-businesses-and-other-non-domestic-customers
