Library Books.

What does anyone think about library books and the CV? I wash my hands before and after reading, and have a few books to be going on with, as I suspect the libraries may close before too long. One book I took out last week smelled strongly of smoke, yuk! I put it outside in the fresh air for a while. Made me think of how many hands touch them. ??

The libraries have closed here as well - I still have several books on loan, use Borrowbox occasionally. I do use Kindle Unlimited (although cancelled at moment) and also about to recommence Readly which gives access to hundreds of magazines for around £9 per month (I think it is only tablets or phones though not laptops) which considering the various prices of magazines is well worth it. Plus I have my own library of books which I add to regularly but never seem to read smile smile I used to use Audiobooks but tended to fall asleep while listening, so now use my Alexa to read them while I am doing various jobs round the house.

My local library will close saturday until May 31st at the earliest.It will be greatly missed here although I don't think it would be sensible for it to stay open until everything is more stable.

We have just heard this morning that ours are due to close from Sunday. But as only one is open on Sunday that really means from 1.00pm tomorrow. I do hope it's not for long. I love my job and will miss all my regulars.
