Applications for North Yorkshire Council bus passes and blue badges must be made online. If you or someone you know needs help doing this, our trained IT Buddies are standing by. We offer one-to-one sessions by appointment and the process takes around an hour.
Call into the library or ring us on 01609 534584 for an appointment and details of the documents you’ll need to bring with you.
A FREE service from the community library.
Our FREE Home Library and Information Service (HLIS) can bring books, large print books, DVD movies and audiobooks right to your door.
This service is ideal if you are unable to get to the library, cannot carry books comfortably, or if you are a busy carer. We deliver to people who live in residential and nursing homes too.
We’ll chat to you about your reading, listening and watching preferences so that we can personally tailor the selections we’ll be making for you. We’ll then deliver items to you once a fortnight, or keep them at the library for collection by a member of your family, a carer or a friend.
Drop us an email at ecl.generalenquiries@gmail.com or ring us on 01609 534584 to arrange a home visit.
This month’s mini-exhibition features work created by the folk at The Boot Shop in Easingwold.
The Boot Shop is a community-based project run by the national charity United Response supporting adults with physical disabilities, learning difficulties and/or mental health support needs in reaching their potential and gaining the lives they want.
The word ‘engagement’ is important and every piece of art on display shows the absolute engagement of each artist with their chosen media. The artists have created images that are uniquely personal to them and of which they feel justifiably proud.
Drop by the library during August and admire these wonderful pictures.
To complement Marvellous Makers – this year’s Summer Reading Challenge theme – the library recently hosted a ‘Build a Junk Robot’ session under the guidance of Master Roboteer and artist Chris Geeson.
The event was positively rammed and the various cyborg creations were simply amazing, as you can see from this photo montage. Just for fun, can you spot which (in)famous musical brothers saw their 90s classic album achieve the ultimate immortality as part of a Woldian robot? Is that definitely or just maybe?
A big thank you to everyone who took part.
To complement Marvellous Makers – this year’s Summer Reading Challenge theme – the library recently hosted a ‘Make a Minion Pencil Holder’ crafting session run by the brilliant local artist Chris Geeson.
Here are some pics of a few of the fabulous Minions created on the day by our wonderfully imaginative junior customers. Felonious Gru Jr. would definitely approve and we say PEM ERN ‘EM! [Translation: we love ’em!]
A big thank you to everyone who took part.
