Tales from The Leeds Library: Special Oral History Episode with Judith Pickard
In this special episode of Tales from The Leeds Library, Archive Assistant Niimi Day Gough and Assistant Librarian Anna Goodridge interview our longest subscribing member. Miss Judith Pickard became a member in 1952 - which, at the time, required references and a share certificate (viewable on our social medias @theleedslibrary)! To celebrate her 70th anniversary of joining the Library, she shares her memories of sherry parties, piano recitals, and the Library's growth towards its Next Chapter. To find out more about The Leeds Library's exciting expansion into our new building, and to view the plans we discuss in the episode, click here. Our entrance and exit music is Book Bag by E's Jammy Jams.

Tales From The Leeds Library S2E12 author Sarah Brooks
For the final episode of season 2 of Tales from The Leeds Library we talk to author Sarah Brooks about her upcoming debut novel A Cautious Traveller's Guide to the Wastelands, if less is more in sci-fi and speculative fiction, bringing myth into her work and being taught by George R.R.

Tales From The Leeds Library S2E11 Jed Aitchison from Buy Nowt LS6
This week's episode of Tales from The Leeds Library features a conversation with Jed Aitchison from Buy Nowt LS6. We talk to Jed about libraries, but not as we know them: instead of lending books Buy Nowt LS6 lends things. We also discuss sustainability and the ethos behind the Library of Things movement, some of the weirder objects available for borrowing, and what our relationship to stuff says about us.
