Easter Lock down Reads

Make this Easter lock down an opportunity to get into some relaxing reading.

From short books to epics, classics to childrens fiction, there is something for everyone.

Below are a list of 15 titles that you can access for free, from our library catalogue and from the newly launched National Emergency Library which has been created to enable anyone and everyone (with a PC, tablet or phone) to access as much material as possible through this challenging time. Please take a look at the list and see if there is something that you might have been meaning to read for some time or something you know nothing about!

Have a great Easter, enjoy the sun and relax with a good read on us.
