More books for Cumbria
£100,000 library boost
More than £100,000 is to be spent on thousands of new books for libraries across Cumbria to attract more users, reports BBC Online. Cumbria County Council already has one million books in stock and will spend the money on an extra 17,000 books.
As well as the latest popular fiction and non-fiction, the extra investment will be used to buy more illustrated novels for junior readers. It will also invest in multiple copies of popular books, and offer readers older titles which are out of print.
