November
Christmas has arrived early at the library this year with the opening of the first box of Mr John Profit’s wonderful gift of books.

Several requests have already been satisfied and I have no doubt that many more out of print copies will be unpacked in the next weeks, to provide a surprise Christmas or New Year present for those members already on the list of requests.

If you are searching for a particular publication on dance, or would like to start, or add to, your own information source for the new examinations, do contact the library, or visit the book sale section, which now has new stock added each week. A selected list of some of the books available is printed here.
