More library<->pub outreach

Jessamyn did neglect to mention to me that she had run pub quiz nights in her past. Librarians are very interesting when you get to know them. :)
Here’s something I clipped to blog later and neglected to mention in my post on pub quizzes as outreach:

A Lager, some crisps and Jane Eyre please

If you’re looking for a good read in Wales, the nearest location might be at your “local”…the pub that is. The Lighthouse Inn, just outside Newport, has branched out and is now lining its shelves with books as well as spirits. It’s proven very handy for people who want to pass a bit of time without going into town to visit the library. The books are changed regularly by the library system, and visitors to the pub can also order books for delivery.

It would be neat to add the local pub to a library’s senior center book drop-off schedule.
