When you tell people that you work in the Library at the
Children’s Hospital they often assume it
is a patients’ library and say things
like ‘that must be lovely...all those nice picture books’.
Well it is lovely working here but most of
our books certainly don’t have nice pictures in them!
Recently we have expanded our small (donated) fiction
collection to include a wide variety of books including poetry, biography,
chick lit, suspense, thriller and classic fiction.
Our new Leisure
Reading Collection is available for all SCH staff and registered library
users to borrow or read in the library – we also have a selection of very short
Quick Reads.
We believe it is important to provide this additional service
to staff who may not get the chance to get to a public library or perhaps feel the need
to chill out from work with a good book. Many of the titles have been selected
from the Reading Agency’s MoodBoosting Books list.
Check out the titles available by coming up to browse the
shelves (F Floor Stephenson Wing) or by searching our library catalogue for the keyword ‘Leisure’.
