The community’s response to keeping our library was nothing short of incredible. It was inspiring to see so many of you show your appreciation for this community hub.
Culture Perth and Kinross have been working with the community to explore what will work best in the Auchterarder Library and they’ve created a plan that will help our library thrive.
This new chapter for our library will bring even more of the things you love and new opportunities to connect. Look forward to author visits (Best-selling author Denise Mina 21st Nov) events like Remake Crafting sessions (booking sheet in the library) and a new “Chat Corner.” There will also be digital support sessions, ancestry exploration (monthly Friday sessions), and a new “Community Corner.” This will be a dedicated space for local community groups to share information about their events and activities. (Please do bring in posters about your events and information about your group (what you do / how to get in touch etc A4 size ideal)
The goal is to make sure everyone in our community knows what’s available and feels welcome to join in—whether you’re picking up a new book or discovering something new to do!
The future of our library depends on all of us – make it a part of your routine, “borrow not buy” your books, find out about local events, use the computers, attend the library events. The best way to show how much this space means to our community is to walk through its doors. Every visit, every book you borrow, the time you spend here helps to prove its value.
