Friends,

Possibly not the most important query in the grand scheme of things, but

I'm just wondering, for those meetings who have a Quaker Library,

how much it is valued as a resource?

Covid seems to have had a long lasting effect (we think?) on our Library but

we've also wondered if younger people are perhaps used to reading on kindles and online,

and older Friends who struggle to read smaller print are perhaps discouraged, that way?

At Scarborough our Library now receives very little use despite recent acquisitions being reviewed

and detailed in our monthly newsletter, and we are keen to promote our Library.

How do other Meetings encourage Friends to make use of their Library?

Thank you

In peace and friendship,

Ann
