Kicking off our 20th Anniversary Year

 

Happy 2023 to our lovely community! It's a big year for us at Haddenham Library as we mark 20 years since we reopened as a volunteer run service. You can read a bit about our history here.

 

We're kicking off the celebrations with an exciting activity: an everlasting story! The way this works is: we have a notebook set up in the library with the beginnings of a story, and we need you to add to it. All you need is imagination and a pen (and we can lend you the pen).

 

Come on in to become part of our Everlasting Story about a Magic Library, and by the end of the year we'll have something we can add to our shelves!

 

Here's the introduction from our co-Chair, Andrea Chambers:

 

Book Club

Our friendly Book Club meets on the third Tuesday of the month in the Library at 3.30pm. We welcome anyone who enjoys reading and likes
talking about books. We don't do 'lit crit' but we discuss why we like/didn't like the book choice. We exchange tips on recent reads that we think others might enjoy, and then wander on to a wide range of subjects. You don't have to buy the books – we take turns to choose a book from a Cambridgeshire Libraries multi-copy list. If you are interested in joining us, send a request to Sally via info@haddenhamlibrarycambs.co.uk or give your contact details to a Library Volunteer.

 

Upcoming read:

Next month's read ‘In a Blink of an Eye’ by Jo Callaghan will be discussed on Tuesday 18th November. All ages and genders are welcome, and anyone born after 1980 would be greatly appreciated for their new perspectives! As always, we can provide a copy of the book, so no need to buy one.

 

To join us, speak to a Library volunteer, or drop a line to info@haddenhamlibrarycambs.co.uk.
