I…read morego to the local library in Armthorpe because it's handy and easy to get to, just outside of the main village centre. The staff are really friendly usually, and especially when you first start going it can be a bit confusing (well it was for me anyway!) so its good to be able to ask for help and advice without feeling like a total twit. I've managed to hire out quite a lot of books that I thought would have been hard to get hold of which has saved me a fortune and they've got thousands of books, all free! They also have reference books if you're doing research, and I think they do story sessions for little kids although I tend not to hang around those :) If you haven't been to a library in a while, give it a go, it's a free day out and you're bound to find something to take your fancy.

It's a smallish library, but there's a great selection of books, and a good study area with all the reference books to hand. The computer terminals are all internet connected, you just need to get yourself a password. You're only allowed an hour online if there's a queue (and there often is), but hey it's free! The librarians are always friendly and helpful too. The only thing that's missing is Sunday opening and a coffee shop. ;-)

The main library is large and split into sections such as media is in a seperate room just off the main area. There is plenty of choice, with new best sellers being available for one week loan, with most books being three weeks. If its a certain book you are after you can register online and order the book in for collection and also online you can renew. The staff are friendly and helpful too. It does need a little bit of tlc as the interior is a bit dated but it kinda adds to the charm of the place. Also if have time go upstairs to the art gallery asits worth a ponder too.

I'm personally not a huge reader, but I'm sure this will be great for a book lover. When you go in, there are lockers on the side where you haven't got a choice but to lock your bags and jackets away. I was told pictures are allowed (though 1 said yes, the other said no, and had a quick discussion about it). The area that I did go into, was a bit smaller but still neat to look at, though I think there's a much bigger / lavish area. Also, I was told that there was a section which just looks beautiful (like the Harry Potter library, as he said!). There was a section where it looked like you can only enter with a keycard. It was really quiet in the library, and i really regret NOT asking, as I'm sure what was behind the door was this harry potter like reading room and library that I was looking for! Maybe if you ask nicely, you can take a peek? So, NO, i didn't get to see the room of these pics that I've posted up. Not sure how you get in there as I mentioned, it looked as if you need special permission to be in there. Apparently, there are lots of original works housed at this library, including plays. For a £25 membership, you can BORROW these original works. Kinda crazy!!! I'm giving it 5 stars, because, I know the beautiful room is hiding within, maybe another visitor can check it out and see if they've made it behind the doors to that beautiful library room?!

Libraries are one of those things in life that tend to get over looked. Ok so its less of a…read moreshopping high than buying shoes for example, but I always get such a trill from a really good book. I can get lost in a book for days, if anybody tries to talk to me while I am reading all they will get out of me is a glare, I should wear a do not disturb sign. The fact that you have to give them back after you have read them doesn't matter as you just go and pick up a new one. Set in a lovely building it has that musty smell that all good libraries do, a mixture of dust and knowledge. I have been going here for months and there are still many titles that I am planning to read. They also have a great service where you can renew you books over the phone; you may never need to pay a fine again. Libraries are also the hub of any community and a really good start for getting involved with the people around you.

My dad and I came here for some lunch last week and it was a lovely quiet spot with a variety of…read morelunch options and cake. We both went for a panini and drinks. I was slightly disappointed at the food. I went for a mozzarella, pesto and roasted vegetables panini, but the pesto appeared to be from a jar and the roasted vegetables were red peppers in brine from a jar. I think I'd have been better sticking to the cakes, which looked delicious. The panini tasted fine, but it just could have been so much better! While we were eating a large school/college crowd came in on their lunch break and sat at one of the large tables, I suspect the cafe is near to the school. It wasn't too noisy, but just meant it got quite busy and there weren't many tables free, if you are looking to visit around that time. Anyway, food aside, the place is very quaint with nice key features around the place making up the decor. From the seating area you can see some rocking chairs which are replicas of historical chairs. Upstairs is a small library with computers to work at and also a section on the history of the area, which I enjoyed reading. Staff were very friendly and one volunteer stood talking to my dad about the area for some time, which was very nice. They also have a small area of things for sale, mostly kitchen items, but they were really nice and I would go back again just to pick up some of their nice tea towels and tote bags.
