To all library lovers,

We have had some terrific feedback about libraries' activities on 14 February as part of Library Lovers Day but would really appreciate more feedback about your exciting and  innovative ideas and suggestions for how to improve the event next year. The feedback form is on the Library Lovers website: www.librarylovers.org.au 

Thank you to all the libraries that participated in the Interflora competition. The winners and their libraries are listed on the Library Lovers website. And the entries for our competition question - Why do you love your library? - were wonderful. Enjoy this sample of some of
them:

- I love my library because it retains my sanity.
- My library is a place that transports me to wherever, whenever and however, just like magic. No better place in the universe!!
- I am endlessly grateful to my library and my local librarians because they have fed my curiosity and passions all these years.
- Relaxing, adventurous, imaginative, love in a world of make-believe and fantasy. A world away from everyday life.
- Libraries foster a lifetime love of reading and learning. My library helps children start on this marvellous adventure in life.
- I love the library because it’s bright and happy and makes me feel alive!
- I love the way there are activities for all, my son is all smiles everyday he comes, especially after nursery time. Great people, great times.
- Books take me back to another age, ahead to the future, life in the here and now, enter into other people’s lives, travel to other places, enjoy new hobbies, watch and listen to audios.

Thank you for taking the time to give us feedback. And continue to inspire such love and wonderful comments from your users!

Kind regards

Jane
