Library morningtea well supported

Before you even get into the main part of Harvey Library, there is a range of resources in the foyer that are available for anyone to use. Hundreds of romance paperbacks are available for free swapping, and a table of good quality second hand books are available for purchase for a small donation. Jigsaws can be borrowed from a shelf full of dozens of interesting pictures including scenery, animals and even ‘puzzle’ jigsaw puzzles. And an ever-changing display of pamphlets about topics ranging from organ donation to teenagers to digital TV is supplemented by notices on the board about local activities and information.Inside the library the bulk of library stock is extended by a Quick Pick trolley of easy reads, a selection of new popular magazines, displays of fi ction

and non-fi ction recently received at the library, and DVDs, audio books, toys and games. If you can’t fi nd what you want on the shelves, there are more books in the library store out the back, or books can be ordered in from the state wide stock of 2 million items through the free inter-library loan system.Residents who haven’t visited the library recently are invited to come along to investigate what is available, including resources (as above), activities (Computers for absolute beginners, storytime and rhyme time etc) and services (including photocopying, faxing, laminating and wifi .)Ruth Campbell-HicksPrincipal Librarian

About 50 people attended the Biggest Morning Tea at the Harvey Library last Thursday that raised more than $400 for the Cancer Council.

Local residents enjoyed the social side of the fundraiser and mixed with Harvey Shire Council staff who turned out in numbers to support the worthy cause.

Principal Librarian Ruth Campbell-Hicks had held the event for some years and was grateful for local businesses Parton’s IGA, Super IGA, Eureka Bakery, Stirling Cottage, Panetta’s Fruit Market and Westpac Bank who donated slices, cakes and fruit for a delicious morning tea.

A highlight of the morning was the auction of a stylish handbag that caused much laughter and friendly banter between the guests before Gwen Palmer stepped up the bidding and made the deal.

People thoroughly enjoyed themselves and many Library users, who could not attend, generously dropped their donations at the Library throughout the week.
