Hi Marina - I am poster who asked for some advice re combining a social interest with libraries/books and you helpfully suggested Bookstart which was a brill idea. Cheekily, I contacted the Bookstart co-ordinator here in the NE, offering voluntary time if anything avail. Am now arranging to meet her, so any advice??? Feel very out of touch in library world esp as always worked in acadmeic libs and more especially on the systems side. Any advice appreciated and thanks once more.
