Sometimes it can be all doom and gloom and you think that librarianship as a profesison really is an echo chamber, but things like this really bring a tear to my eye and make me realise that I've picked a career and profession that, despite all the obstacles, is worthwhile and that can potentially change people's lives.
ETA There are campaign photos now and they're going on the BBC News properly. Well done, Stony Stratford.
