Burning Library Book Drive 2009!

 

Book Drive!

It’s a muggy twenty degrees in Halifax – summer is here and the Burning Library is back!

I’m not sure which is my favourite part -watching the eclectic collection grow, or being at the festival and interacting with library patrons. Both are pretty fantastic.

From now until August 25th, the Burning Library Book Drive is in YOUR city. Well, it is if you live in Halifax or Toronto. And if you don’t live in either of these lovely cities, you can still take part – you can always mail us your donations, or email us with suggestions, and we’ll do our best to get a hold of them!

Bradbury Strikes Again

Do libraries have mascots? Can mascots be books? If they do and they can, then ours would be this classic of classics – Farenheit 451! Hooray for our newest addition, complete with image of a burning man on the cover.

Thanks to Michael for classing up the collection.

Storytelling & Codebreaking

Neil Stephenson’s Cryptonomicon and Storytelling and the Art of Imagination by Nancy Mellon are the two newest members of the Burning Library family. Awwwwww!!!!
