Wester Hailes Library run Bookbug sessions every week, the next session will take place on Wednesday 13 July 2022.
Due to limiting numbers to allow for social distancing the library ask that you book your place online here.
As numbers are limited, please only book to attend Bookbug sessions every 2 weeks. This will allow them to reach more families. Please only book a free ticket for each adult attending. Children don’t need tickets. Sessions are now running inside the Library in our Children’s area during opening hours.
A few things will be different about this session in order to keep staff and families safe:
- Please do not attend the session if you or your children display symptoms or have tested positive for Coronavirus, or if you have been told to isolate by NHS.
- Whilst the Scottish Government has advised that there is no longer any legal requirement to wear a face covering when accessing libraries, they do continue to encourage the wearing of a face covering when moving around and in communal settings.
- Our main aim continues to be that we create a safe environment for our staff and customers. Please respect any member of staff or other customers who may wish to continue to wear a face covering or keep their distance from others.
- Hand sanitiser will be available on arrival.
- Windows will be open for ventilation, so you may want to bring warm clothing or an extra layer.
- While at the session please follow good hygiene practices (avoid touching your nose, eyes and mouth. Cough or sneeze into your elbow or a tissue and dispose of it safely).
- In the event the session is cancelled, you will be contacted via email.
- Plastic seating will be provided for parents and carers, with children on laps or in front of you on the carpet.
You can register for the event online here.
