If you're looking for something Autumn-y to do this season, why not pop down to visit us and find a baking book from our collection to bake some lovely autumn treats? 🍰 Or, pop down and pick up a cozy crime novel to snuggle up on the sofa with! 🕵️‍♀️

It's been amazing to see so many children today during our medal ceremony treasure hunt 💫🎶and collecting their well-deserved Summer Reading Challenge medals!🏅🎸 Colin the Capybara has very much enjoyed seeing everyone (and having so many selfies!).

A massive massive well done and congratulations again to everyone who finished the Summer Reading Challenge! You've done AMAZINGLY reading so many books this summer. 📖🏅🎉

Did you know Worcestershire Libraries has it's very own mobile library? 🚐💨

The mobile library visits 160 villages in Worcestershire every four to five weeks. It brings library services to customers who may be unable to travel to a static library.

You can reserve books to the mobile library just as you would to a static library, so if they don't have what you're looking for, just ask! Take a look here: https://www.worcestershire.gov.uk/council-services/libraries/your-library-membership/mobile-library to see if (and when!) the library drives near you!

Have you ever been desperate to read a book, but not been able to find it on the shelves of your local library? 📖🤔 Did you know that you can reserve books from across to county and have them delivered to your library to pick up? 🛻💨

Using the number on the back of your library card, and the first 4 digits of your date of birth (DDMM), you can log in to your account here: https://wcc.ent.sirsidynix.net.uk/client/en_GB/wcc/entlogin and browse our full online catalogue! 📖✨

It is 80p per adult reservation, and FREE for any children's books reserved on a children's card. Try reserving your first book today! 🤩📖

Happy Monday all, and a great big congratulations to everyone who finished this year's Summer Reading Challenge!! 🥳📖🏆
