Welcome back to all those people who are returning to the College after the summer break and a big HELLO to all those staff and students who joining us for their first year. We hope you will enjoy your time at the here and make good use of the Library and all the other facilities the College has to offer.
Thank you to all those who joined the Reading Journey before and during the summer. We've already had a few people complete the challenge and have enjoyed their cup of tea or flapjack in the canteen. We have had over 50 people join so far, which is fantastic. College staff have been really supportive and are just as keen as the Library to encourage a culture of reading across the three sites. Big thanks to those people. We're looking forward to seeing how the Journey goes this year as well as hoping to continue (and build) on our Six Book Challenge Success.

We will be updating this blog regularly with reviews of fiction books, any new fiction we have in at the Library and any books we might recommend as a good read.
If you have something you'd like to say about any of the books we chat about, or have some recommendations of your own then please do post comments. We'd love to hear your thoughts and feelings about any fiction which you have enjoyed, hated, loved, unveiled some emotions etc.
This year we may be collaborating with some other readers, outside of the College, to discuss specific books- almost like a book club but you don't have to attend a meeting. To that end we will be developing the blog over the next few weeks. We hope you'll like how it looks but drop ua a line if you have any suggestions.
There will be some book reviews appearing in the next few days from texts library staff have read over the summer, so have a look through and see if anything appeals to you. Look out for different campaigns and competitions running in the Library throughout the year, that you may like to contribute to.
As ever...happy reading!!
