On Mondays, there will be a staff member at Curlewis library from 1pm until 3pm. Bookings are essentials as there is a limit of 10 per session.

The young children will enjoy storytelling and handicrafts on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings at 10.30am to 11am at Gunnedah - there is no charge and bookings aren't necessary - just come along and enjoy.
Plenty of new books have been added to the collection this week, including 10 western large prints, and 10 large print romance books. Other books include Saving You by Australian author Charlotte Nash, and a Lord Peter Wimsey novel, The Nine Tailors by Dorothy Sayers.
The New Iberia Blues is a detective novel by James Lee Burke featuring Detective Robicheraux. The author is described as "one of the finest crime writers". If you like historical fiction, try The Sea Queen by Linnea Hartsuyker, a novel set in Norway in the times of King Harald.
