"We've forgotten the crackers Gromit!!"

It's that time of year again, when the Libraries at all 3 centres try to raise money for Wallace & Gromit's Children's Hospices by holding a Tea Party. You can pop in, have a a cup of tea or coffee and a cake (for a small charge of course, this is for charity!) and also learn more about some of the activities which happen in the Library. This includes Six Book Challenge 2012, Everlasting Festival of Reading, Information & Study Skills and E-resources, amongst others.
There will be a couple of games to take part, raffles at some of the centres with prizes to be won. So do come in and help us make this the best W&G Tea Party ever.

Daventry Library- Wednesday 12th December 10am-2pm

Short Story/Poetry competition

We've had a fantastic response to the writing competition this year. Well done and thank you to all those who have taken the time to sit down and write either a poem or a short story. Writing can be a very personal thing and I think it is very brave of you to want to submit a piece for others to read. I salute all of you!!

We will be reading all of the entries and deciding on a winner in the next couple of weeks, so keep your eyes peeled for the results. All the winners will be notified before the College finishes for Christmas.

Thanks again and keep up the good work.

We are looking forward to welcoming those students (and staff if they like) to our first Reading Group meeting. For the first meeting we'll have a fun book quiz, with a prize for the winner. Then we'll just have a chat about what sort of books everyone likes or dislikes. It'll be fun and light-hearted, nothing heavy; there may even be refreshments provided! Come along and see you what you think.

Friday 16th November 2012- The Library at Booth Lane 12pm- 1pm
