RIP Mr. Bookman, Library Cop. A legend of library enforcement.
Philip Baker Hall as Bookman on Seinfeld was perfection. The second best thing about this clip is watching Jerry try his best not to laugh

Good advice from @ChristchurchLib. Brushing up on your Kamala Khan is a worthy endeavour and you can start right here: ent.kotui.org.nz/client/en_A…

Marvel nerds will be aware that the #MsMarvel trailer has dropped. You've got until 8 June to get your Kamala Khan on, so get some reading in. Start with 'No Normal' by the always awesome G. Willow Wilson and go from there. christchurch.bibliocommons.c… ^MT

We celebrated Valentine's Day yesterday by taking our loneliest book out on a date. It had spent two lonely years sitting on the shelf, unread and waiting to be picked😢 Here are some highlights of the date 🥰

This Valentine’s Day, we hope that you’re as loved by somebody as the book in this stock photo is. But hey, if love isn’t on your horizon, maybe we could set you up on a blind date with a book!
Beautifully-wrapped surprise titles available in our libraries until 14 February🥰
