Does your busy schedule make it hard to attend a meeting? Join our Online Book Club where you can relax, read, and socialise from the comfort of your own home. By utilising the Borrowbox app, the book selections have been tailor made so that readers can either listen to the book on audio, read the e-book, or if you prefer a physical copy, you can order one from the library. It doesn’t matter how you read the book, you can join us and engage in the discussion surrounding the latest trending titles. We meet online on the third Tuesday of every month at 7pm.

Festival of Libraries: Haunted Homes – A Horror Writing Workshop

Where do you feel a sense of belonging? For many, spaces of belonging centre on the home: a physical location which – through its sturdy walls and locked doors – protects us from the dangers of the outside world. However, in the modern world, technology and devices can open new doors into our homes. The spectres of history and society can enter whether they are invited or not. As part of the Festival of Libraries, this chilling workshop will look at horror fiction of the page and screen, questioning who and what belongs in the home. We will then put pen to paper and reclaim what belonging means to us, as we explore how horror can help us to confront and understand our anxieties in a creative way. The workshop will include discussions and guided writing activities. No previous writing experience is necessary, and there’s no pressure to share anything during the workshop. Bring something to write with / on if you like, but we will also have pens and paper. Suitable for ages 16 years and over. Workshop facilitators: Dr Mark Yates (Lecturer in English Literature, University of Salford) and Alex Herod (PhD Candidate, University of Salford). FREE, booking required.
