Well what a weekend it was and we took the decision to close for the week and keep our librarians safe.

But the good news is .... we are back open tomorrow (Thursday 8th) and it's COFFEE AND CAKE DAY !!!! Yay!!

Join us between 10am and 1pm for freshly brewed coffee or tea, delicious cakes (choose between a Coffee & Walnut Cake or some Sticky Gingerbread) and of course some convivial company. You can even choose a book or two to borrow while you're at it.

Oscar Wilde, Michael Crichton, Sylvia Plath, Dylan Thomas, Graeme Greene and Jackie Collins were all born in October and we have books by all of them on our shelves. Each week we usually have a new book or two as well, so why not come along and have a browse?

Due to the inclement weather the VOCAL library will remain closed this week. Apologies for any inconvenience. We hope to be back open next Thursday 8th October when it will be our coffee and cake morning.

We hope to see you then

A little reminder that the library will be open throughout most of the winter on Thursdays and Fridays only, from 10 am until 1 pm.

Pop along to exchange your books and find something to read on these cooler days on the sofa or, should we get an Indian summer, on the beach. We have books from every genre to suit your taste, including a few new ones and some latest releases on the shelf

Our lovely librarians will be there to help you if you’re looking for something or you’d just like some suggestions.

A reminder that because of the poor weather forecast, the VOCAL Library is closed today, Thursday 17th, but open tomorrow, Friday 18th. (Looking out the window right now, the weather obviously hadn’t listened to the forecast!).

And tomorrow, our monthly coffee and cake morning is back! Hurrah! We have a Fruit Cake and some Apple Pastries for you to enjoy along with your coffee (or tea) and some good company.

So pop along, find something to read and enjoy a relaxing hour or two with us, all in return for a donation towards our work. Every cent you give us goes to helping the local street cats, so it’s a very worthy cause.

And if you haven’t visited us before, we’re on the Kritsa road out of Agios Nikolaos, about 100m before you reach the British Food Shop. If you get to Lidl, you’ve gone too far. Look out for our sign.

Please note that due to the very bad weather being consistently forecast across all apps for Wednesday and Thursday, the...

Please note that due to the very bad weather being consistently forecast across all apps for Wednesday and Thursday, the VOCAL Library will be CLOSED on Thursday this week and the scheduled coffee and cake will be delayed until Friday, 18th.

Apologies for any inconvenience, but there's no point in doing something with exclusively outdoor seating in the pouring rain!

(NB The brighter the colour on the map below, the heavier the rain! Batten down the hatches and get the Ark ready).

After an extended summer break, the VOCAL lending library will reopen this week on Thursday, 10th September.

Throughout the winter, we will be open for two days a week only, being Thursday and Friday, and our coffee and cake mornings are moving to monthly. First coffee and cake will be next week on Thursday 17th September.

Why not pop along and see us, exchange your books and at our monthly coffee morning you can enjoy freshly brewed coffee or tea plus delicious cakes all in return for a donation. Every cent we take through the library goes towards the care and neutering of the local street cats. So it is a very worthy course.

We look forward to seeing you this autumn.

In case you don’t know the VOCAL library is located on the Kritsa Road out of Agios Nikolaos on the way to Lidl, just a few doors down from the British Food Shop.

Unfortunately due to various circumstances, the VOCAL Library will not be open during July or August. There will not be any coffee mornings, either.

We will reopen in September.

Our popular coffee mornings will resume in September also, but just once a month instead of weekly.

If you have books to return you can do so at any time there is someone on the premises. Please leave your returns on the white trolley by the desk. which has the ‘Returns’ notice. Please do not leave books outside the door.

Enjoy your summer, and we will see you in September.

Hopefully you will be pleased to hear that the VOCAL library is back open tomorrow only (Thursday 25th) as there is a clinic on Friday.

Unless we get a VERY hot spell of weather or we have clinics, we will be open on normal days/hours throughout July but as usual we will be closed for August.

This Thursday our coffee morning will be back, with this week’s bakes being a Banana and Chestnut Loaf, or some Blueberry Muffins.

See you there!

PS If you don’t know where we are, the library is located on the Kritsa Road out of Agios Nikolaos, just a few doors down from the British Food Shop. Look out for our sign.

Unfortunately the VOCAL Library will not be open this Thursday for various reasons. So sadly, no coffee and cake this week.

If you need to exchange your books it WILL be open on Friday, 19th.

We hope to be back to normal next week. Apologies for any inconvenience.
