March saw the launch of the Wellbeing Reading Group, as part of Cov-entry and Warwickshire’s Year of Wellbeing initiative. Colleagues met to discuss their favourite books, and were loaned a copy of the first book we’re reading together– Jean-Paul Didierlaurent’s The Reader on the 6.27. The 1/2 hour meetings are held monthly at lunchtimes with the next meeting on 3rd April at 1.15pm. All staff are very welcome!

East Midlands Library Assistants’ Day
Bev After meeting Molly at the Park and Ride at Braunstone, it was a short walk from our drop off point to the Land Registry building in Leicester. A nice modern building but we weren’t too sure about the ‘glass ele-vator’ on the outside of it! There we met Lisa (and Billy the Library Cat) who was giv-ing a presentation at the event. What we both liked and a few others did too, was the chance to get to chat to our fellow library assistants. It was good to compare notes and share a few things too.
Molly During the Library Assistant Day workshop that I attended, we had the chance to do activities
and talk amongst each other to get to know the other attendees of the workshop and learn how
their normal day to day in a library works. We all had the chance to work in groups and share
each other’s email to stay in touch if we wanted to. Everyone was so friendly, and I really en-
joyed the day getting to know new people who do the same job as I do.
