Libraries Change Lives Week (1st-7th June)
Ahead of this year’s Libraries Change Lives Week, CILIP's annual advocacy campaign, celebrating the vital role libraries play in transforming lives and strengthening communities, we’re asking Frome Library visitors to share their fondest memories of visiting the library (it doesn’t necessarily need to be about Frome Library - though it’s fab - we want to celebrate all libraries!)
Perhaps you remember taking part in the Summer Reading challenge? Or maybe there was a librarian who always gave you top notch recommendations?
We’ll be collecting and sharing everyone’s stories throughout May for an inspiring window display at Frome Library to be launched during the first week of June.
