Hello

How are you today?  Have you ever noticed that there are very few, if any, TV programmes that are set in libraries or involve characters visiting libraries?  I can't think why this is!  Well ok I can really, it's because some people mistakenly think libraries that are dull and boring places, when in reality they are anything but.  Anyone who visits libraries knows that they are actually very lively and vibrant places that are filled with a total cross-section of society, from people picking out something to read, to families using a computer to book their holiday.  From tourists looking for information on local attractions, to job-seekers typing up their CV.  From music-lovers browsing CDs, to Time-Lords defeating aliens and saving the world from impending doom.  That got your attention didn't it?  Anyhow, that brings me nicely onto the fact that Saturday night's Doctor Who is set in a library.  The episode is called "Silence in the Library" and I, for one, am curious to see if the Doctor's library bears any relation to any I've ever visited - I'll let you know my reaction on Monday!

Have a good weekend.
