If the world doesn't end in the next 48 hours, I will have a new book out. Yes, I'll be glad the world doesn't end for other reasons, but also the book. There's still time to pre-order! (And then there'll be time to order without the pre-.) neuvel.net/books/the-ma...

A woman is sitting at a table in a library. She is wearing dark glasses and is looking up and smiling while doing something with her hands on the table which is plugged in. Beneath the table there is a tan guide dog, wearing their harness, chilling.
It's National Library Week. Make sure that if you're sharing National Library Week images you include alt text because the library is for EVERYONE.
If people don't know what your image is, especially if it contains text, your post is not for everyone. Guidance:
