Big Christmas

The Library played its part in this year’s Castle Cary and Ansford Big Christmas with a Book Sale in the Library itself – a good opportunity to attract people who might not have been in the building before.

Placard

As you can see, volunteering to support the library presents a wide range of opportunities! Well done to all those who worked hard to set up and host the event.

Book Sale in the Library

Best of all, we didn’t get wet – (those with long memories will recall the ingenious book shelter which provided a number of logistical challenges).

Happy Christmas to all our helpers.”

Children

Story Time

Our Friday sessions for babies and pre-schoolers are now scheduled for 9.30am – 10am, so that parents delivering older children to school can come straight on to Story Time with the younger ones. After the session your child can have fun choosing books to take home – they’re never too young for the library habit!

The last Story Time this term is Friday 20 December and first one next term will be on Friday 10 January.

Don’t forget that we have a used book table at the Moat Garden and EatCary Coffee Morning at the Market House, Castle Cary from 9.30 to 12.00 on Saturday 12th October. Do come along and bring your friends.
