Library Newsletter 1: Summer 2015

New Titles Whilst the long, lazy days of summer are great for getting out and about, they are also perfect for settling down with a good book. The eight or so  weeks of the summer holidays are when I usually try and tackle those books that have been sitting unread  on my shelves for too long; books that are too long or too complex to be properly enjoyed in a rushed few  hours at the end of the day, or those that need a  warm sunny day in the garden to set the mood.   

I’ve given you a few of my picks for summer reading later on in this first edition of CCB library’s  newsletter. You’ll also find information on useful websites, a selection of some of our new titles, bookish dates for your diary, and information on our new catalogue, Eclipse, which can now be accessed  from any computer with internet connection.  

Do share what you’re reading over the summer with  the library – why not send a postcard from wherever  you are, or send us a tweet? 

Miss Skipper.
