Our library

At this stage we envisage that we will be staying in the existing library building for at least this winter. Therefore, we are endeavouring to make the building a brighter, warmer and more inviting place to visit. We would welcome suggestions from the village to help us achieve this.

Summer Reading Challenge

We are delighted with the number of entries for this year’s challenge. Children can still sign up at the library and read six library books of their choice to complete the Challenge. There are exclusive rewards to collect along the way, and it’s FREE to take part!

Off the Shelf – Normal People by Sally Rooney

This book has been in the best sellers list for quite some time. It is a well written coming of age novel and an easy read. Set in a small town in contemporary rural Ireland young people are trying to make sense of themselves and their peer group. We follow Connell and Marianne’s journeys of self-discovery from school through university in Dublin. The vulnerabilities and uncertainties of developing young adults are explored. The characters are well developed, and the author describes how their social interactions and lives in the two places are almost reversed. Some of us rated it higher than others, but all thought it an interesting read. We gave it 8/10
