I can actually recommend this course - not often I get excited by things unrelated to plants or knitting but I did find from the studies that my understanding of the broader NHS was really improved, which would be highly beneficial to anyone considering how their library fits into the scheme of things. Loads of non-librarians are on the course which was excellent too.

Never lend books, for no one ever returns them. The only books I have in my library are books that other folks have leant me.
