LOVE reading and wish to share that passion during lockdown?

Bolton Library has launched a new online club for bookworms to do just that.

Share Your Reads is a new Facebook page started by the library to form a virtual book club.

A spokesman said: "‘Share Your Reads’ is a group for readers and librarians to share ideas, recommend and review.

"A great way to meet new virtual friends who enjoy reading just as much as you."

He added: "You can share a recommendation, share your thoughts on a book from the past, share books that have been inspirational or share books on a theme.

"Just post the cover of your book, with a few words and comment on other people's posts."

And also this week to mark Mental Awareness Week, the library is staging a number of activities.

This includes an online meditation session on Wednesday as part of its 'health @home series'.

Tomorrow, the library will be taking a closer look at Vanessa Bell’s View into a Garden.

People can about Bell’s beautiful painting of a room in her home, Charleston. Charleston was a place of solace and comfort. Said the library, "there are times when we all need a room like this".
