PENISTONE
This Readers Group, the first to be formed in Barnsley Libraries, has
been running for nearly six years.
We meet once a fortnight on Monday afternoons from 2.00-3.30pm. Discussions
are enthusiastic, friendly and stimulating- we read anything from classics
to children's books- recently we re-read Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird
and also enjoyed Jacqueline Wilson's children's stories.
The group has received various grants which have enabled us to
buy books and audiocassettes- this means that membership can be offered
to a wider audience. We have staged several successful Author Events
in the area to which other readers groups and members of the public
have been invited and are planning more during 2005.
