Libraries Books Aloud
A relaxing, friendly and gently stimulating drop-in group for adults available at several branches. Participants are welcome to pull up a chair and listen for a while as staff and volunteers read extracts from fiction, non-fiction and poetry. Readings are expertly selected on entertaining and thought-provoking themes such as Back to School, Courage, and Whatever the Weather.
Books Aloud offers a free, daytime opportunity to share a little conversation with others while listening to great words from books both familiar and completely new. It’s also a sociable and accessible event for those with sight loss. For all, there’s a special magic in simply sitting back and being read to.
