Kids!
How would you like to win an Angus & Roberston voucher just for reading some books - which we know you love to do anyway.
Here's the deal. Firstly, you must come into the library and pick up your Library Lovers Postcard.
Then, every time you borrow a book or magazine between the 9th February and the 22nd February you ask the staff to stamp your postcard. When you have read 5 books or magazines you put your stamped postcard in the special box at each branch. Don't forget to make sure your contact details are on the back.
You must do this before the 22nd February because then each branch will draw 1 Kids postcard to win a voucher. Happy reading!
p.s. Get Mum and Dad into the fun too! We have another competition just for them.
