Happy 20th Anniversary Haddenham library!

 

“The Arkenstall doors are closing, the tea pots are packed away -

The last of our visitors are enjoying the Local History display.

We had a pun-filled speech from Stephen, Chair of our PC -

He gave certificates to our fab volunteers and said “thanks for the tea”.

The stunning selection of bakes would put Tom’s Cakes to shame -

And the masterpiece cake by Rosemary will go down in village fame.

So, thank-you everyone who joined us, you made a jolly crowd –

Our 20th Birthday party was enormous fun & made us all so proud!”

 

And check out the brilliant coverage in the Ely Standard of our 20th anniversary party!

 

The Haddenham Warm Hub gratefully accepted what was left of Rosemary's work of art Library cake (a great pity to have to cut it, really). Some great memories here!

 

Book Club

Our friendly Book Club meets on the third Tuesday of the month in the Library at 3.30pm. We welcome anyone who enjoys reading and likes
talking about books. We don't do 'lit crit' but we discuss why we like/didn't like the book choice. We exchange tips on recent reads that we think others might enjoy, and then wander on to a wide range of subjects. You don't have to buy the books – we take turns to choose a book from a Cambridgeshire Libraries multi-copy list. If you are interested in joining us, send a request to Sally via info@haddenhamlibrarycambs.co.uk or give your contact details to a Library Volunteer.

 

Upcoming read:

Our next book is Nicola Upson's 1930s Cambridge-set 'Nine Lessons' which is the 7th in her series of mysteries featuring real-life crime writer Josephine Tey (1896–1952). All are welcome, and we will provide a copy of the book.  We will be meeting in the library to discuss it on Tuesday 17th March at 3.30pm. 

 

To join us, speak to a Library volunteer, or drop a line to info@haddenhamlibrarycambs.co.uk.
