Subiaco Library is inviting readers to go on a blind date with a book to celebrate Library Lovers' Day on Tuesday 14 February.

Library Lovers' Day is a day to celebrate libraries, library staff, and of course, books!

Subiaco Library's 'Library Lovers' display features a collection of the library staff's all-time favourite reads...with a literary twist. All of the books are wrapped in brown paper, and are each labelled with a short poem to give readers a sneak peek of what may be inside. 

Members of the public are also invited to contribute their own sonnet, limerick or haiku about their favourite book to add to the display.

The City has partnered with Containers for Change to trial a series of Container Exchange points in and around Subiaco.

The exchange points attach to public bins and hold between six and 10 drink containers which anyone in the community can collect and return to a Containers for Change refund point. 

Mayor David McMullen said, "I strongly encourage residents and visitors in Subiaco to make use of these new exchange points to help reduce waste in our streets and parks."
