We are extremely excited to announce North Lanarkshire's first Scots Language Book Festival - Check it Oot! supported by @handsupfortrad. Across four events with top Scots authors and writers, we're hoping you'll join us for the celebration of the Scots language. Featuring…
You can join us at either #MotherwellLib or #CumbernauldLib on Tuesday 23 September, 10am to watch a live screening of an author event with Kate Atkinson provided by BorrowBox. Register for the location most suited to you and enjoy: culturenl.co.uk/s5mk
With the start of September, we've got a host of new Always Available titles on BorrowBox for you to enjoy throughout the month. This month, it includes Sally Rooney's Intermezzo.
Join Gillian this week for more fun with Bookbug on our new Bookbug Online session. Lots of fun favourite songs and rhymes to enjoy and join in with from home. Watch on YouTube here: youtu.be/f5SXZCGFVG0
Our Facebook Book Group has a new suggested read for September. This month's read is Akira Otani's The Night of Baba Yaga which is available for everyone this month on BorrowBox. Join the group here to take part: culturenl.co.uk/ufpo
It's almost time to turn the page into a new week, but not before you tell us about the pages you've been turning to relax and enjoy a good book.
In early August, the kids at #WishawLib turned their hand at potion making. Lots of secret potions created and tons of fun had by everyone.
#MotherwellLib have started a new colouring group for kids called Colouring Crew. If your kids want to join the crew, come along to our weekly sessions on Saturdays at 2.15pm. For ages 3+.
Missed the podcast last night? Catch up with our latest Bea's Books edition of the For the Love of Books podcast today. It makes great lunchtime listening. Listen on your podcast app or YouTube here: youtu.be/kdwKBg0RoHo
We've got a brilliant new podcast episode for you on our For the Love of Books podcast. Join Jennie and Pari as they chat about hidden figures in the new Bea's Books edition. Listen on your podcast app or YouTube here: youtu.be/kdwKBg0RoHo #FLBpodcast #BeasBooks
Our adult colouring in group, Between the Lines, at #MotherwellLib is looking for new members. Sessions are drop-in so no need to book. If you're interested, come along to the next weekly session on Tuesday 2 September, 11am.
Andrew is back with another Bookbug Online video for your little ones to enjoy. With a lot of familiar songs and rhymes, you'll be singing along in no time. Catch it on YouTube here: youtu.be/sgcXY5ZRdaM
Some of our library cards have been enjoying the summer and escaping North Lanarkshire for a while. Where did your library card library card visit? Let us know with a picture using #LibraryCardsOnTour. This one disappeared to Shell Bay at Elie.
Code Club returns to #MotherwellLib and #WishawLib from Monday 1 September for a 6-week block. Catch sessions in Motherwell on Mondays and Thursdays while there will be a Tuesday block at Wishaw. All from 3.30pm to 4.30pm. Find out more here: culturenl.co.uk/code
LEGO fans! Our LEGO Club at #CumbernauldLib is starting back on Thursday 11 September, 3.30pm. Call the library on 01236 632702 on how to get involved.
With just over 3 weeks of the Let's Read NL Reading Challenge 2025 left, there's still time to squeeze those last few visits to complete the challenge and be entered in the prize draw for cinema tickets. Visit your local library to grab the final stickers you need.
