Bottisham Community Library Association News

This month we have some appeals - if you can help with any of them, please phone Gerry Lockett.

First, we're looking for another committee member for the BCLA . The ideal person would be able to take over publicity for us for our fundraising and other events.

Secondly, we'd be very grateful if anyone with expertise in looking after photocopiers could volunteer to have a look at our old donated one and tell us whether we can get it to work properly without spending much money on it.

Thirdly, if anyone has any unwanted videos (perhaps ones your children have outgrown?) or books on tape that they no longer require we would be pleased to add them to the library collection if possible. Please either drop them at the library, or phone 811236 if you would like them to be collected.

And fourthly, we also have a brand new initiative: Magazines for Bottisham Community Library! Do you have a subscription to a periodical? Would others be interested in reading it? Would you be willing to donate each issue to the Library as you have finished it?

We are hoping to make a selection of magazines available for reading in the Library. These could be on gardening, cars, computers, the arts, politics, science, crafts etc. etc. If you are able to provide a regular supply of a magazine for this project then please contact Clare Enright.

Please note that we do not have the space or resources to receive collections of back-dated magazines.
