LIBRARY CLOSURE

Please note that, as of today, acting on Leicestershire County Council advice, the Library will be closed for the foreseeable future. This is very regrettable but we have no option. We will let you know when we are able to re-open. In the meantime, we wish all Kirby Muxloe residents the very best in these difficult circumstances and urge you all to take care and stay safe.

QUIZ NIGHT 27TH MARCH 2020

Due to current circumstances we very much regret that we have had to postpone the quiz night due to take place on 27th March, We shall put on another one as soon as we are able, probably in the Autumn – something to look forward to!

Please come in to the Library if you would like your money to be refunded. Alternatively, if you want us to hold it over until the Autumn, that will be fine – just let us know.

LOCAL HISTORY CAFE

Due to current circumstances and acting on advice from the Government, we have decided to postpone any further meetings of the Local History Cafe at the present time. We very much hope that we will be able to resume in September, and will keep people informed. In the meantime, we will endeavour to keep in touch with our cafe members. Please contact the Library if you need any further help or information.

COFFEE MORNING

Our March coffee, cake and children’s craft activities morning will take place on Saturday 28th March from 10.00 – 1.00. Come and join us!

THE ELEPHANT MAN

In a Meet the Author event, we have invited Jo Vigor-Mungovin to come to the Library and talk about her work and Joseph Merrick. Jo is a local author and has published a book about Joseph – she has done extensive research and will be bringing copies of the book with her. This will be on Saturday 20th June from 2.00 – 4.00. No charge for entry, refreshments available for purchase.

EMBROIDERERS’ GUILD

To celebrate the Embroiderers’ Guild National Day of Stitch, Leicester embroiders will be coming to the Library on Saturday June 20th, 10.00 – 1.00, to demonstrate their art and invite you to have a go. No charge, refreshments available for purchase.

Easter Quiz

Our Roger & Rosemary Easter paper-based quiz is now available in the Library, £1.00 per copy. Closing date for return is 25th April, with a large Easter egg for the winner.

BEETLE DRIVE

Unfortunately, we have had to cancel the Beetle Drive, which had been planned for Saturday 29th February. We did not manage to sell enough tickets – seems that Kirby Muxloe and Beetle Drives are not a good fit! All payments will be returned.
