Well, there is hope…
David Grieve, who had informed us about the Mobile Library service removal, has done a bit of research, and found that you can in fact borrow eBooks, eAudiobooks, eComics and eMagazines from the library! There is also a home delivery service available for those not able to access the library. All is not lost…
The definition of an eBook is: ‘an electronic version of a printed book which can be read on a computer or handheld device’.
Some handy links for you to find out more info:
Borrow eBooks and eAudiobooks – dumgal.gov.uk/eBooks
Borrow eMagazines and eComics – dumgal.gov.uk/Borrow-eMagazines-and-eComics
Home delivery service: dumgal.gov.uk/Book-delivery-service
And (just because we didn’t know it was available as a service, and know of a couple of reading groups in Caerlaverock: dumgal.gov.uk/Books-for-reading-groups
The Boathouse on Glencaple Quay also offers a tiny library space for community use – see here for more!
We’re pleased to be able to report something a little more positively hopeful!
To quote David, “something is always better than nothing, as they say…”
