Can I add my bit about the big screen in the childrens section too. I was in there with m son a few weeks back, only to be completely dominated by The Invincibles (great film, by the way). It seems to be the worst of both worlds....the film totally distracts from looking at all the lovely books - and the books distract from concentrating on the film! Children are subject from a more or less constant onslaught of 'multimedia' these days and dont need to be bomarded with surround sound in the library! call me old fashioned, but arent libraries for the quiet pastimes of reading, studying etc?
Otherwise, the new library is great.
