The city of #Edinburgh is known for a certain 'Boy Wizard', but back in the 1700s a wizard named Major Weir lived close to our library. He was burnt with his magic blackthorn staff for his crimes and is said to still haunt the West Bow in his demonic chariot #FolkloreThursday

The Library is closing early today for a staff party - it is Friday after all! We will close at 4pm and re-open on Monday at 10am as usual. Have a nice weekend!

The Brooch of Lorn is said to have been ripped from the tunic of Robert the Bruce at the Battle of Dalrigh by the Macdougall Clan. From the @socantscot archive is a n 1828 painting of the brooch. The brooch is currently display in the #WildAndMajestic exhibition @NtlMuseumsScot

Some unsual #WednesdayWisdom from 1936 today from a Women's Friend magazine cutting found tucked inside a book. Tips on proper hobbies for a Sunday, T.B victim's fur stoles and party games.. as they say, a trouble shared is a trouble halved #librarylife #archives

Picasso once said "Every child is an artist" so for #WednesdayWisdom here are some keen students practicing hard @eca_Edinburgh sculpture galleries - and should any student mess up, #wisdom from artist Bob Ross suggests 'We don't make mistakes, just happy accidents!'

These photographs are part of a collection of 110 calotypes by D. O. Hill. An early form of photography, they were made using paper coated with silver iodide. Along with Robert Adamson, Hill produced portraits & images of Edinburgh in the nineteenth century #PhotoMW #MuseumWeek

Some archives can be fairly serious, but the Scottish Life Archive is filled with examples of people having fun! These 1907 holiday snaps from Portpatrick include a pillow fight and a potato race (the lady on the far left looks absolutely chuffed) #PlayMW #MuseumWeek

The Jenner Archive includes 18 scrapbooks of advertisements and printed articles, many of them beautifully illustrated - like these dashing ladies modeling the latest millinery, March 1916 #NationalHatDay
