The liberals are planning to give $2b to fossil fuel companies - they say that's ‘worst case’ but don't have any actual figures for next year.
I’m moving an amendment to say that they should have an electric vehicle strategy before they hand over the $2b.

I am admiring the #kohails version 18.0510000 of the City Portsmouth public library + High schools + branches (New Hampshire, US). libcat.cityofportsmouth.com/… I love the clean & clear look & many liked services...

An enhancement to @kohails included in version 18.05 is the ability to set a

"community libraries offer creative and innovative approaches to support literacy development and lifelong learning. They understand the needs of the local community because they are an active part of it."
Golly temperatures above 42°C / 107.6°F are incredible! Think of staff driving mobile library vans and suffering being out in it. And a few more days of it still ....

HELSINKI (AFP) - What do you give the world's most literate country for its 100th birthday? For Finland's politicians and public, the answer was simple: a vast, state-of-the-art library, a new "living room for the nation". str.sg/oXt9

As an object, this is rare book heaven! It was privately printed using the finest ink on hand-made paper, snail-pattern marbled endpapers, rebound in navy blue morocco by C. Lewis. Our head curator Maggie Patton says it’s 502 years old and will be around for at least 500 more.
There is such an abundance of features in #kohails. How many of these does your library use?
