And if you don’t already love your library, come on in for a visit and see all the services that we offer.  We can offer free computer use, free Wifi, printing, scanning, copying and laminating for a charge.  There are also three JPs on duty at the library who are available to witness signatures, and certify documents as being true copies. 

The library also runs a number of free programs such as Brain Training @ the Library every Monday for older people, Toddler Time for pre-schoolers, and Junior Brain Games - an after school activity for older children.

For people unable to get to the library, who are confined to their homes or their shops, we have Housebound, and Shopbound services, delivering bags of books to recipients each fortnight. If you would like this service, or know of anyone who could benefit from the Housebound Library Service, please let the staff know.

And of course there are books.

Members can borrow items free of charge, and they have almost three weeks in which to read them.

Among the new titles added to the collection this week are: Screen Schooled: Two Veteran Teachers Expose How Technology Overuse is Making our Kids Dumber by Joe Clement and Matt Miles; Better Brain Food: Eat to Cheat Dementia and Cognitive Decline - as well as information about what and why certain foods are good for brain health, there are plenty of easy to follow recipes for one or two people with photos. 

For those wanting to take a holiday, check out Lonely Planet’s Best of Thailand: Top sights, Authentic Experiences - it’s a book packed with the usual Lonely Planet information of what to do, where to go, what to see, and includes maps and colour photos.

Want to holiday in Australia with your pets? We recommend borrowing, Pets on Holiday: The Best Pet-Friendly Accommodation, Activities and Cafes all over Australia by Gareth Brock. The book is split into states, and then local areas. No photos but plenty of information to help you plan your trip with your furry friend.

See you soon at the library.
