- You can always tell when Sting has been in to return his books.
- So over the last few months kids keep coming into the library asking if we have any books about this thing FORTNITE. We don't and I'd never heard of it so I tried asking what it was.
- We've just had a library book returned that was due back in 1974 how's your day going?
- We have an announcement. There is a cat in the library. We repeat. 👏There👏is👏a👏cat👏in👏the👏library👏
- We have an announcement. We just found an old @WHSmith paper bag folded in a book and it looks like how things used to be.
- We have breaking news. The Mobile Library is in Evie today and a cat has just walked aboard. 👏A👏CAT👏HAS👏JUST👏WALKED👏ABOARD👏THE👏MOBILE👏LIBRARY👏
- In one of our archive strong rooms there is a shelf. The shelf does not contain the most exciting or interesting item in the archive but it does contain something amazing. A thread.
- When it's 9am and you forgot the library doesn't open until 10.
- Replying to @OrkneyLibraryTry to imagine life in 2634. This is why archives, museums and libraries are amazing. End.
- If you've got a better photograph of a cat being furious while trying to appear nonchalant in the face of a lap-stealing otter, then I'd like to see it. #Orkney #Archives #SaturdayMorning #Caturday
- It's only Monday morning and we've already had a book returned that was due back in 1977 how's your day going?
- Every year on #Halloween we like to carve a #pumpkin from our collection of Penguin 60s. 🎃🔪 We're up to our elbows in juicy plots and seedy characters, but luckily there's not much pulp fiction. 🎃📚
