VISUAL LIBRARIES - Leave your Mark.

A collaborative, visual project which encourages you to sign out a Visual Library Book and ‘Leave Your Mark’.

 

A Visual Library Book is whatever you want it to be, a sketchbook, a journal, a diary, a notepad.

You can ‘Leave Your Mark’ in whatever way you want, ranging from drawing, writing, sewing, adding photographs, markings, printing and sticking. How you make your marks is entirely up to you. All we ask is that you have fun with the different themes. Just borrow it on your library card with other books and materials. If you are not already a member, just ask the staff to help you.

 

45 Visual Library Books have been placed in Portsmouth Central Library and each has its own theme ranging from; Portsmouth, My City, When I Open My Eyes, Whilst I Was Waiting, Love, What’s in My Pocket and Memories. The intention is for you to feel free to explore the Visual Library Books and choose a theme that you like.

In Association with: Rhodia, Seawhite, Portsmouth City Council, University of Portsmouth, COPIC Pens

Christina's program for Friday was a planetarium! The Tweens and Young Adults were able to go inside and Christina pointed out the constellations and told stories of all the myths.

Johnston Library at 201 W. 10th Street in Baxter Springs Kansas. Built in 1872 and it was intended to be the County Courthouse but was never used for that purpose since Columbus got the county seat. It was used as the city hall until 1905. In 1905, Peter Nils Johnston, a Swedish immigrant, provided a bequest for the city to establish a permanent library in the building.

In 1848 Warrington had the proud distinction of becoming the first town in the United Kingdom to open a rate-supported public library. It was born from a long-established private subscription library that had been operating in Warrington since 1760 from the Horsemarket Street premises of the printer William Eyres.

 

By the mid-1880s, Warrington’s municipal library – by now housed in [these] purpose-built premises in Museum Street, the foundation stone of which was laid by William Beamont in front of a massive crowd – boasted over 20,000 books and was thought to be the largest of any town in England based on the number of books per head of population.

Library of Celsus, Ephesus. Notice the hybrid Roman capital on an unfluted column, combining the Greek Ionian and Corinthian styles: Rome proclaims itself a new world order that surpasses all that was ancient Greece.

Thanks to everyone who came to the Teddy Bear Sleepover at Selkirk Library last Thursday (14 November).

The teddies had fun exploring the Library when they were alone – they read stories, drank tea, stamped books and drew pictures!

Remember to collect your bear, along with a photo of their night, from the Library.
