Central Park

Library courtyard and Central Park

The gates of Central Park were opened for the first time this morning and some children tried out the swings on their way to school. The park was full of children after school and at 7pm there were still about 50 children of all ages in the park, some using the equipment, some playing on the basketball court and others rolling down the terraces.

Work continued on moving stock into the library today. A workroom has been setup in the basement for staff to start processing new stock and making it shelf ready.

A few samples of furniture have arrived for the public areas of the library. We will need several styles of chairs and tables and will have to choose colours and finishes in the next few weeks.

The press had a tour of the library last Friday and there was some coverage in the Echo and Barry & District News.
