Libraries across North Wales are introducing a new loyalty card to entice people into libraries to borrow books. Launching on National Libraries Day, 4th February 2012, this new initiative will reward one lucky loyal borrower with a fabulous prize of an iPad.
Bethan Hughes of Denbighshire Library Service said “Libraries can help transform people’s lives and reading can help reduce the stresses of the day. The more you read the sharper your mind becomes and the more focused you become. Reading fiction can open up whole new worlds for you and your local library is here to help you find those worlds and experiences. We are pleased to be working closely with all the library services in north Wales on this promotion.”
The aim of the promotion is to get local people using their local library and start reading. The promotion is designed to encourage people to become new members, though it is open to any adult who wants to read books. All you have to do is join the library from February 4th and take home a minimum of three books on three separate occasions before World Book Night on April 23rd and have your completed loyalty card entered into the prize draw.
The promotion is organised by Estyn Allan y Gogledd, the reader development network in north Wales and is funded by the Welsh Government’s Libraries for Life programme.
