Substitute library / Ersatzbibliothek

I’ve started packing my belongings for the move in six weeks’ time. For some reason I started with my books - I guess they are my most valued possessions.

Sadly, our local library remains closed - we miss Saturday mornings browsing and discovering. Meanwhile, it is heartening to see this ‘Ersatzbibliotek’ getting well used. The top shelf was empty today, so I’ll be topping it up with donations shortly!

“Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers” (Charles William Eliot).

"The only thing that you absolutely have to know, is the location of the library” (Albert Einstein).
