National Libraries Day

Join in at your local library this Saturday 9th February to celebrate National Libraries Day.  Being a library member gives you free access to 1000s of books, cds and dvds as well as a world of information online. To mark this special day we”ll be hosting some of Edinburgh’s best loved children’s authors at library events across the city.

And – if you’re a lapsed member, come back and see us. For one week only there will be an anmesty on library fines. So if an overdue book is stopping you from making the most of your library, now’s the time to get in touch.

shhh… Something exciting is happening…

Saturday 4th February is a special day. It is the first National Libraries Day – one day devoted to libraries and celebrating everything they do. So if you’re a regular at your local library, why not visit a library you’ve never been to before? Or if you’ve not been to your local library in a little while, pop in this week and find out what you’ve been missing. And of course, you don’t have to go anywhere to visit Your Library online.

We’ve always thought that libraries offer something for everyone. You might be surprised to learn that you can join a knitting group, trace your family tree, start a LearnIT beginners’ computer course, join a book group, take in an exhibition, play on the playstation, or just find a quiet cosy corner to catch up with the newspaper or your favourite magazine. Oh yeah, and we have books too, all kinds of every beautiful book including ebooks and eaudiobook.

Whisper it loud. Share the love of libraries.
