Valentine's Day

For all those romantics out there the Library has taken on a bit of a pink hue. There are love stories galore around the Library for you to choose from. If you would prefer you can come along and make some paper hearts to add to the display board or to give to your true love.

Holocaust Memorial Day

 
Every year on the 27th of January, the date of the liberation of the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp at the end of WW2, the world remembers all of those who have been affected by acts of genocide whether in the concentration camps or during conflicts in Cambodia, Rwanda, Bosnia or Darfur. The theme for HMD 2015 is 'Keep the memory alive'. There is a display in the Library to mark Holocaust Memorial Day.

Burns Night

Sunday 25th January is Burns Night. The Library has a selection of books about Robert Burns and  how to organise a Burns supper as well a books of the Bard's poetry. Everything you need to celebrate the birth of Scotland's most famous poet can be found in the Library (well, except for the haggis...and the bagpipes!)

Best Wishes

Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy new Year from Mrs Aitken in the Library.

Why not come into the Library and borrow a book about Christmas or with a  Christmassy theme.
