Think you have what it takes to Escape the Library? πŸ—οΈπŸ•΅οΈ

A character has gone missing from its story book and hidden in the library. Now this fairy-tale land is in peril. The library has been locked down. No-one is allowed to leave until the character is reunited with its book and a happy ending is secured.

A group of up to 6 will have 30 minutes to solve the puzzles and save the story. If you think this could be you, sign up today!

What an out of this world evening we had on Friday, for this year's Night at your Museum. A stellar way to start half term! 🌠

It's not everyday you see the library transformed into a planetarium, and a glowing hula hoop station! πŸͺ

We had lots of fun on the night as our library team hosted some cosmic crafts, making our own shooting star wands, galaxy art and even some aliens! πŸ‘½

We hope you all enjoyed it as much as we did! 😁

As part of the Agatha Christie exhibition launching here at Rugby Library π’•π’π’Žπ’π’“π’“π’π’˜, we also have some special events planned! πŸ”Ž

Next Thursday, we will be streaming The Science of Murder: Agatha Christie's deadly poisons. Come along and watch on the screen from the Royal Institution! πŸ–₯️

Agatha Christie revelled in the use of poison to kill off unfortunate victims in her books, using poisons more accurately than any other crime writer. But how is it that some chemicals in such small quantities can be so deadly? And how feasible was it to obtain these chemicals both in Christie’s day, and today?

Join chemist-turned-writer Kathryn Harkup as she explores how Christie’s extensive knowledge of drugs and medicine mixed with real life cases, created her brilliantly plotted crime novels. Her poisons were picked with care to give clues, red-herrings and interesting new twists to her classic crime novels, whilst maintaining scientific accuracy. Kathryn will uncover howdunnit, but whodunnit is still up to you to find out...
