The Mystery of the Faifley Library Book that Travelled to Denmark Our copy of Literature or Life by Jorge Semprun has recently been returned to us from Aarhus, Denmark, due in 2012! Don't worry, we don't fine for late books we’d just love to know how it got there. #LoveLibraries

To help us celebrate the National Library of Scotland’s #LoveLibraries campaign, staff at Clydebank library have created a Wall of Love! We invite you to ‘take a heart to take part’ and share the reasons why you love your library. @SLIC1991 @CILIPScotland @scottishbktrust
