Apologies for cross-posting I hope that some at least of you would be willing to sign the following petition on the No 10 Downing Street site. I started this in December and we already have over 750 signatures, but it would be great to keep this growing. <<http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/schoollibraries/>> We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to make the provision of professionally staffed libraries within all schools, both secondary and primary, statutory. Thank you very much. (And if you have any ideas for other places to spread the word, that would be terrific.)
