I agree totally. Out of all the booky blogs I’ve tried, this is the one that remains on my list. Inspirational people at Christchurch City Libraries.

I love you bloggers,you make life so much more interesting for me, so thanks a million,i must admit i did have a laugh at what people put in that return books slot. there was a book written in america about a cat called Dewey who got shoved in there when he was a tiny kitten and became a resident at that library.

Thanks Linda. I didn’t know about Dewey but looks like we have some of the books. http://christchurch.bibliocommons.com/search?t=smart&search_category=keyword&q=dewey+cat&commit=Search Have you seen the Aussie tv series The Librarians? They get all sorts in their returns box.
