📚 Shhh... we're celebrating International Day of Play! 🎉

Who says libraries are all work and no play?

If you need a study break or some stimulation during the summer break, head to our Fun Corner on Floor 2 and get hands-on with:
✂️ Fancy-edge scissors
🧶 Knitting & crochet supplies
🟡 Pom pom makers
🌈 Coloured paper & dots
🤏 Fidget and sensory toys
🧩 Jigsaw puzzles
⚡ Operation (good luck, surgeon!)
🎵 Music Quiz cards..and plenty more!

Because sometimes the best way to recharge is to put the books down and just have fun!

Introducing library staff's Pet of the Month! We know you love our pets so we thought, why not?

April is: Lady.

Lady is the fur baby of Shannon who is working in Taylor Library.

Hi, my name is Lady and I am a 6 year old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel . I am a professional cuddler, napper, and sausage connoisseur. I love walks just to get petted by people and if you don’t say "Hi!" I will cry until you have no choice. Even though I am small, I am the princess of my family. 👸

What does Lady’s dream day look like?
• Getting up around 9am and just stretching for a few minutes
• Going for a little walk to see all her many fans
• Laying in the sun daydreaming about sausages
• Cuddling all night with her family.
