Baldock Library The Library for Baldock Donate to Hertfordshire Libraries

It’s now easy to donate online to the library service by visiting our website.

We are often offered donations of money by users who wish to show their appreciation for the service. Those who visit the library are able to do this in person. Now you can also support the library service by donating online. You don't have to donate. Hertfordshire Libraries are a universal and free service to the community. Your decision to donate is an entirely voluntary one. We ask that you donate only as much as you feel comfortable with. You may want to consider either a one-off payment or more frequently.

100% of each donation goes directly to Hertfordshire Libraries and is used to maintain and enhance our services. https://www.hertfordshire.gov.uk/librarydonations

May We Feed the King by Rebecca Perry

A curator has received a new commission, to commemorate the 750 anniversary of a former palace, now open to the public. The curator’s attention to detail is inch perfect. She has one guiding rule. The created scene must appear as if the historical characters had just left the room. Because of the nature of her job, she spends a lot of time with the archivist and a mutual attraction slowly develops. The curator is drawn to the King’s chamber. So transfixed by the King, a reluctant and deeply unhappy ruler, the edges of her life begin to blur and she loses herself in the past. A sparkly magical, beautiful and fascinating debut. A story of history’s riches, inspiration, love and a meaningful life.
