Everyone in Nettlestone, Seaview, St Helens, Bembridge and Brading is invited to come and see what their community library is like now, and enjoy some Christmas cheer in the process.

And the welcome is for the whole family. There will be Christmas music, refreshments including mince pies and mulled wine, storytelling and colouring for the youngest visitors – as well as a bookstall offering a wide selection of titles that could make ideal Christmas presents.

Designs for a library logo created by children from Bembridge Primary School will also be on display.

All the usual library services will be in operation, because of course Saturday morning is one of the regular opening times for this community-run service.
