Come and join our Storytime for Adults!

One of our library assistants will read a selection of short stories, poems and snippets for you to enjoy and discuss. There is no need to read a book in advance, just turn up on the day and discuss the stories we read aloud, and share your own love of reading! Leave with some ideas for your next read and make new friends.

Followed by refreshments in the Library.

Everyone welcome!
