We had a fabulous time this morning at our Bedtime Stories themed storytime for Booktrust's Bedtime Reading Week.  The aim was to encourage the whole family to get involved in the joy that is reading aloud.  Some hardy staff (me included) joined in by wearing our pyjamas to tell stories to pyjama-clad children who came along (teddy bears were also welcome).

A fab time was had by all and you can even see some photos (but not any of me!) in the Storytime folder in our photo album.

Happy reading!

Night night!

Hello

Some people think that libraries are hushed buildings, but here in North Lincolnshire our staff are going to be out and about in the open-air this summer showing you all that the library has to offer. 

At the end of the month we'll be at the Normanby Hall Food Festival showing off our range of cook books, then later in the summer we'll be at Corus Gala as usual, as well as making our debut at the Crowle Show.  So do come along and see us if you're in the area.

Until next time - happy reading

It was the library's second manga night on Thursday and a fabulous time was had by all by the look of things.

We had nearly 200 people attending - which is up on last year - and 42 cosplayers (again up from last year).  There are photos of the cosplayers in the photo album along with some of the art work that was entered into the competion.  Loads of samples and freebies were given away as well as raffle prizes to lots of lucky winners.

If you missed it, you missed a treat!

Just a quick reminder about our Manga event tonight.  Tickets have been selling very quickly so you'll have to get a move on if you want to come.  Tickets are still on sale at the Central Library.

We're now doing the last bits of preparation getting everything ready for tonight.  And if you can't make it, don't worry, photos will be in the photo album (hopefully) on Saturday morning.

See you tonight (if you have a ticket)
