Hi

One reason I bought my house was its location 4 doors away from the local library. When I first visited it six years ago, there was no children's librarian, and the children's books were a stunning collection of 1950s and 1960s fiction. Since then, a great librarian has come on board, and the Friends of the Library (I'm the president) has helped buy hundreds of new books. Because I want to, I get to buy lots of the books. This is a good thing for me personally, because otherwise I would be spending my own money buying books. So in this blog I am planning to talk about what we're buying for the library, what my children and I are reading, and interesting book related news items that I encounter.
