This is our first summer running the library, and Anstey Community Library’s first summer reading challenge – Jenny, Jane and I went on our training session this week.

We’re pretty excited as the theme is Roald Dahl this year – giving loads of scope for events and activities (Gemma and Sue are working on ideas for some fantastic children’s crafts already.)

The scheme will involve collectable cards, rainbow-tinted glasses and medals … under 3’s will be able to join the Book Crawl and collect certificates.

Here’s a few snaps from our training session, as a taster for the launch on July 9th – with lots more info to come over the next few weeks…
