Happy Library Lovers' Day

Valentine's Day is so last decade. It's Library Lovers' Day now, at least in Australia, and Australians love their libraries. To celebrate, we handed out chocolate hearts to everyone who came to the library today as well as bookmarks with literary love quotes.

There were lots of red balloons for the littlest library lovers.

The best idea was to have a little competition. To go in the draw to win a box of Guylian chocolates and a voucher for Collins books, all people had to do was tell us what they love about their library.

I reached in to the full, tin box this evening and pulled out the lucky winner. He loves the great books and DVDs and the friendly girls, sorry to our male staff members, you don't rate a mention for this customer. I am looking forward to reading all the entries tomorrow.  I think this easy, fun competition is going to be a big morale booster for library staff!
