Christmas Books Table

CALL in at Crediton Library from Monday, December 18 to Saturday, December 23 to choose a book from the Christmas Books Table (as well as borrowing books from the library for the holidays). 

On the Christmas Books Table there will be nearly new books for children and adults that have been donated by the public and wrapped up by library staff and volunteers. 

Apart from a brief description on the outside it will be a surprise for you to take away and keep! 

Anyone is welcome to choose one.

If you would like to donate any of your nearly new books for the table you can bring them in to the library until Monday, December 11 and library staff will wrap them ready for the following week.
