Libraries in 2018 (part 2)
I think this is an interesting topic. Do you use your library? As you might know, if you have been following my blog I volunteer at my local library.

I am about to today go on my first training session to do with the new IT system our local libraries are all using from next week. I have also been shown how to open up the library, how cool!
