Liverpool's Spellow Lane library torched last night. What could be more 'patriotic' than destroying a centre which serves the local community?

Fascinating hearing examples of how libraries are responding to challenges to democracy @IFLAwlic this morning. These range from a censorship case in Germany, to provision of prison libraries in Canada, to encouraging digital literacy to combat misinformation in India. #WLIC2025

This afternoon we’re visiting a specialist library for blind and visually impaired citizens of Astana. #WLIC2025 We’ve been shown equipment for creating braille and other alternative formats, as well a brand new prestigious collection of items from Kazakh poet Abai Qunanbaiuly.
