Our libraries can be life-changing
Libraries Change Lives Week is a campaign by CILIP to promote to work of libraries in improving lives. We're marking this week by sharing some of our customer stories as well as highlighting some of the amazing events and opportunities our libraries provide.
From hosting valuable opportunities to connect with others, to facilitating helpful job advice and more, our libraries are a key part of bringing our communities together. Our friendly teams are passionate about allowing customers to access free support and guidance, and offering a safe space for those who are vulnerable and in need. Take a look below at some of our fantastic events, initiatives and more, plus insight from some of those who have benefitted.
