Updated Friday 31st July: Voting has now closed. Our congratulations to the winning charity, No Strings Attached Scotland, and many, many thanks to all those who supported us. Don’t forget there are many other ways you can support the Library as we raise funds for our move to the Mitchell!

You can help the Library become this year’s Glasgow ‘Twestival’ Local Charity and help us raise funds for our move to the Mitchell Library. Vote now to nominate Glasgow Women’s Library for the Glasgow Twestival in September!

The Twestival movement is a world-wide phenomenon inspired by the social networking site Twitter but built from grassroots across the globe. Like-minded ‘tweeps‘ come together for an evening of music (and prizes!), and raise money for charity. The last series of Twestivals raised money for Charity: Water, and for the upcoming Twestivals the focus has changed to local charities. The Glasgow Twestival will take place on September 10th, and they’re looking for a Glasgow-based charity to support.

The charity is being chosen by open vote, and we’d like your help in nominating GWL. You can vote for the Library here! Voting is open until midday on Friday, 31st July.

Don’t forget: You can follow the GWL Kettle on Twitter here.

We’ve been a little lax with updating the blog recently, and hopefully with the new website (and the New Year) we’ll be posting more often. You’ll notice a few new additions to the blog: Our RSS Feed is now hosted by Feedburner back on this site at http://blog.womenslibrary.org.uk/feed/ (I’ll be announcing a number of RSS feed for the main website as well), and the GWL Kettle (indispensable to the smooth running of the Library) is now on Twitter.

The microblog on Twitter is one of a number of places you can find us online. You can visit the GWL Facebook page, and become a member of the Glasgow Women’s Library group to get regular updates.

We’ve also been bookmarking websites with Delicious. If you bookmark with Delicious and want to send us links to websites you think we might like, tag them with for:GlasgowWomensLibrary (or for:liblogger).

If you’re on any of these social networking sites, get in touch next time you’re logged in. And if you’re on any other social networking site where you think GWL should be joining in, please let us know!
