My write-up of the day. We didn’t get to loads of libraries, but it was good to go to some libraries I’ve never been to before and go there for a purpose too. http://informationtwist.wordpress.com/2012/02/05/my-national-libraries-day-out-nld12-librarithon-lovelibraries/

Sounds like you had a good time in Glasgow. Due to a few deadlines that came up that week I only managed 5 libraries. 4 on Saturday. Here’s my write-up.

In reply to: Richard Hawkins posted an update in the group London Library Crawl Hello, On National Libraries Day I was going to pay a visit to a few of the newer libraries in London, join them, borrow a few books and have a […] View

When I was mulling over the librarithon idea I thought I’d do as many as possible over a week, but other library-related plans have got in the way. So it looks like Saturday will be the main day now… so, yes, count me in.

I’ll try to come along – I was thinking it would fit it nicely with the librarithon idea.

Thinking about how to celebrate/highlight online library services as part of National Libraries Day. Maybe in conjunction with #librarithon?

In reply to: Anabel Marsh posted an update in the group Librarithon I like Lauren’s idea of visiting Glasgow libraries. Might not fit them all into the day though. Maybe a subset such as those accessible by Subway? View

The way Zoe did hers was over the period of a week. I was thinking of spreading mine over a few days up to NLD too.
