Fairy lights were threaded round the trees so the area will sparkle once dusk falls. Please feel free to use it for reading, picnics and family activities. 2/2

Sadly one of the trees by the library had to be felled. We asked the contractor to cut us some sections to create a kids story telling garden. This week Jo, Orleen & Saida worked to turn it into a reality. Its not quite finished but we thought it was worth a share. 1/2

Writer Stephen Oram, who visited us last April, will soon be having his latest book on discount for any ebook readers—of course, you can also borrow his books from our expanding "Science Fiction" section, which has recently been divided from "Fantasy" for greater precision
Thoughtful review by Kevin Molin (librarian @RoehamptonL ) "it slows just enough to explore the psychological toll on its protagonists and the intricate moral entanglements of resistance." (ebook 99p in June) https://t.co/5643Rbbzlr

A big thanks to Ornella Tarantola who donated some great books for our Italian language learners. They're all easy readers, from authors like Camilleri, Tamaro and Calvino re-written in a more accessible way, to texts with exercises that suit different levels.
