It’s the SPL’s 30th anniversary –
our pearl anniversary – and we’re
celebrating where we’ve reached
and where we’re heading. Delays to
building work, now scheduled to start
in 2015, mean it’s been an unusual
year so far but one in which we’ve
been able to literally ‘take stock’ –
which has meant counting all 50,000+
items in the collection. We’ve also
been identifying ways that access to
our resources and services can be
improved, working from the inside
out. Our motto – bringing people
and poetry together – sums up our
feelings: poetry is for everyone.
