Young people in Bideford are

invited to a unique event at the Library next week.

'Bideford's Big Book Swap' is an

opportunity to bring unwanted books, swap them with others and share

recommendations.

"Whatever type of book you

like, there's bound to be someone else who's in to it too," organiser Tom

Collins said.

"It's a great way of meeting

people with similar interests, as well as picking up a recommended read or two

for the summer holidays- so bring your books and bring your friends.”

There is no charge for the event,

and free coffee and cake will be served. Swappers are invited to turn up at any

point during the evening.

The event takes place on Thursday

22nd July, between 5 and 7 pm. More information can be found by searching for

'Bideford's Big Book Swap' on Facebook, or by calling the Library.

Bideford Library is situated at

the end of the old bridge, next to Tantons hotel.

    Yes, this is aimed at teens- anyone from 12 to 18 really.

    I think this is a really good idea. It's great to be able to share what you think about books and maybe pick up something you wouldn't have thought of reading before.

    I hope it will be a regular event.

    What a great idea! Is it for a particular age group?
