The 2026 The Wilbur and Niso Smith Foundation Adventure Writing Prize short list has been announced! Six expansive novels reflecting the many places adventure can be found. The shortlist was selected by a panel of 35 dedicated librarians and library staff from across the UK, including two of our very own library staff from North Yorkshire Libraries (Whitby Library & Ripon Library!) ✨
So, why not and reserve and borrow one of these books up from our library? πŸ“š

This Volunteers Week we are saying a huge thank you to our incredible library volunteers for everything they do. πŸ°β˜•οΈ
THANK YOU!!!

We are also inviting others to get involved and give volunteering a try. Even a small amount of time can make a big difference, come and join us and help spread some kindness.

Friday 5th June between 10am-4pm come along and make some Christmas cards for our Home Library customers. Give as much time as you can - even half an hour would make a lovely card for someone at Christmas time and really make a difference.

Today we celebrate Vyshyvanka Day, a beautiful tradition honouring Ukrainian heritage, identity, and resilience.
We are proud to share this photo of one of our amazing Ukrainian volunteers Viktoriia, wearing her traditional embroidered vyshyvanka β€” each stitch telling a story of culture, family, and strength.
Alongside this, our current photography exhibition explores the ongoing history of war in Ukraine, offering powerful insights into the lives behind the headlines. Do pop down to see it before it moves to the next library in the tour next week.
On this day, we celebrate Ukraine for its rich culture while recognising the resilience of its people. πŸ’™πŸ’›
