The library is going to be turned into a tuck shop, social centre for the residents, moving from the Industrial Services building,(ID), where it has been since the fire in <a href="http://penn-hall.blogspot.com/">Pennington Hall</a>, which seems to be totally written off by the powers that be, with no attempt at restoration.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/353025474038793701-4265456274635493968?l=henry-esson-young-building.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Niftyniallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16889079546931648669noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-353025474038793701.post-70544559148647473192010-03-23T22:01:00.000-07:002011-05-01T05:35:28.628-07:00<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_cEScxZpnfXE/S6mf-EEHauI/AAAAAAAAAsg/8a2AT2ooKqI/s1600-h/IMG_5510.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><br /></a>After many years of library service to the staff and patients, the library is being abruptly closed. The annual reports and the bound copies of the patients newsletter "The Leader" were sent to the BC Archives, where no one will probably ever see them again.<br />The library at one time had many reading rooms on the grounds, separate for staff and patients. The present library room was originally the nurses lounge. A great loss to all bibliophiles. I guess the building will need a new dedication plaque, the way it is going,(see top right of blog page). The librarians were not sure where the remaining collection would go when I asked. This situation also further reduces the computer /Internet access for the patients.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_cEScxZpnfXE/S6mf-EEHauI/AAAAAAAAAsg/8a2AT2ooKqI/s1600-h/IMG_5510.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5452064712500407010" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_cEScxZpnfXE/S6mf-EEHauI/AAAAAAAAAsg/8a2AT2ooKqI/s320/IMG_5510.JPG" style="cursor: pointer;
