Mobile library service at 'absolute limit'
The future of the Western Isles’ mobile library service is to come under scrutiny if councillors agree to the recommendations in a new internal audit report. The Audit and Scrutiny Committee are due to meet on Thursday, February 5 and will hear that while the mobile library service is a lifeline for many residents in outlying areas, significant financial pressures and staffing shortages have pushed the service to its absolute limit, raising questions about its long-term viability.

Bluesky resources for Library people! 📚
The Library & Archives on list has grown exponentially over the last week: useful if you'd like to see examples of how institutions are settling in on here (perhaps with a view to setting up your own org on Bluesky).
