Libraries Hacked @librarieshacked.bsky.social · 28/09/2026The updated tag is confusing. It seems to be the date the data was ingested into the National Data Library. So library listings from 2018 say they were updated in 2026 100
Libraries Hacked @librarieshacked.bsky.social · 14/09/2026The whole basis of this 'coursework is impossible now' is nonsense and seems to be trying to be cleverer than other people, while knowing very little. Even without controlled conditions there are plenty of subjects where AI makes little difference. 150
Libraries Hacked @librarieshacked.bsky.social · 18/08/2026Yes, only know Gloucestershire as another example but I think similar exemptions apply. 010
Libraries Hacked @librarieshacked.bsky.social · 18/08/2026Indeed, in fact in a rural area with a poor bus service it will likely be more essential than ever to remove restrictions on travel. 110
Libraries Hacked @librarieshacked.bsky.social · 18/08/2026Yes. Does this not already happen with government regulation? Do English regions need to follow public sector accessibility legislation? Where's this idea come from that devolving certain powers and decision making excludes any central decision making? 030
Libraries Hacked @librarieshacked.bsky.social · 18/08/2026Of course you can. It's perfectly possible to support meaningful local decision making while also trying to remove unfair differences in access to certain public services. It's not even a productive hot take. 160
Libraries Hacked @librarieshacked.bsky.social · 13/08/2026Perfectly good reasons to ban them. Though all the "about time, they're terrible anyway and don't cook food very well, you need a proper one" do seem pretty snobby. They cook food outside and people enjoy them. 000

Libraries Hacked @librarieshacked.bsky.social · 26/07/2026A really crooked modern day usage of the word fairness. 000
Libraries Hacked @librarieshacked.bsky.social · 26/07/2026"Any proposed solution must firstly be fair to those who have "made provisions and saved up over the course of their lives", Badenoch said." In other words, don't you dare go and give money or care to the poor who haven't saved for it. 200

Libraries Hacked @librarieshacked.bsky.social · 09/06/2026In 2026, the year of reading, we are going to adopt an open by default policy, encouraging all member services to widely publish data on catalogues, loans and membership - to enable unprecedented public insight into reading through local libraries. Is what I'm imagining is being said. 010

We're celebrating with this wonderful clip from our wellbeing assembly for students that sums up just so perfectly the power of stories. 1288
Libraries Hacked @librarieshacked.bsky.social · 03/05/2026Not really. Across the vast amount of national statistics they handle many of them are 'crude', though even then still complex to maintain and requiring plenty of expertise. If the methodology was not all clearly published there could be an argument, but it is not presented misleadingly. 110
Libraries Hacked @librarieshacked.bsky.social · 25/04/2026Or even if they don't, potentially it could be added to the report to make it more grating. 000
Libraries Hacked @librarieshacked.bsky.social · 25/04/2026One more time from now, or was that it? 100
Libraries Hacked @librarieshacked.bsky.social · 25/04/2026Absolutely. There's a cool mobile library called Booky McBookface, and that goes around on a boat as well. 000
Libraries Hacked @librarieshacked.bsky.social · 25/04/2026If the being wrong was purely for enjoyment, not sure it could be so easily argued to be wrong as such anyway. That would be more like playing at devil's advocate. 110
Libraries Hacked @librarieshacked.bsky.social · 25/04/2026Bit circular cos you could argue that the original poster simply implying he hadn't gone far enough is therefore also less honest communication. But ultimately in both cases it seems reasonable to imply those things. 100

Libraries Hacked @librarieshacked.bsky.social · 25/04/2026Fair enough. Although there is enough implied in his statement, certainly that anyone educated could deduce, that any significant inequality isn't just going to have just happened by chance. He's just framing it in the responsibility to help now rather than historic blame. 200
Libraries Hacked @librarieshacked.bsky.social · 25/04/2026Doubt it. Perhaps to those already agreeing. But not sure it would do anything other than make others defensive and certainly not increase any positive action. 100
Libraries Hacked @librarieshacked.bsky.social · 25/04/2026And would that be a more or less effective message? 110
