Library loans

When was the last time you visited a library? For me, it was pre-covid.

And so a short visit to Manchester Central Library was in order before catching the tram home. And I’d completely forgot that we donated 12 books to Manchester Library back in 2020—just before the pandemic put peoples plans on hold.

At the time, Jonathan Ebbs (Business and IP Manager, Manchester Library) welcomed the copies and agreed to distribute copies to the regional libraries. I remember how impressed he was with the local stories—and global perspectives. A great addition to the library.

Always curious, I thought I’d enquire how successful they were—2½ after donating the books,

All the books had been loaned out at some point, with the most recent book handed back only a fortnight ago. I’d take that!

A big thanks to the library staff who were very obliging and more than too happy to help. Especially after I introduced myself as the author. I think it made their evening. It certainly made mine!

Inspire, be inspired!
