What does Morrab Library mean to you? We asked our members to give us one word to describe how they feel about their library, and here are some of the answers translated into Cornish. We'll share more in the next few days!

So while you're at the library borrowing books and telling us your favourite author, you may be inspired to want to know more about another subject! Day 5's lesson....

Trying to find out whether we hold a particular title? On Day 2 of Speak Cornish Week, today's phrase will help you ask!

Dydh Da! Today marks the start of Speak Cornish Week, which runs from the 19th - 27th June. We thought it was a great chance to teach our followers a few Cornish words and phrases - these might come in handy when you visit us. Today's might be a bit presumptive!

We've also put some posters around the library for you to discover when you come in - many of these describe our favourite words members have used to describe us, so look out for them if you visit. Hopefully we'll all be a bit more fluent by the end of the week. Enjoya!

Alright. But it has to be of me and my brass horn. 📯 Yes it's mine and no one else's. No. You can't have it.

(We're in a silly mood - have a good weekend all! ☀️📚)

It's #WorldEnvironmentDay - books on nature and the environment are a significant part of our collections and we're consciously growing and developing this.

These titles are currently on our 'new additions' (to the collections) shelf. But there are many, many more out on loan, and filling our natural sciences room - with more (just published) arriving soon.

Ours is a library in the gardens and by the sea - and we know that there's nothing more important than this precious, wonderful, and threatened planet. 🌍📚
