A collection of contemporary fiction for both staff and students built from donations.
Why read fiction?
'Reading fiction not only develops our imagination and creativity, it gives us the skills to be alone. It gives us the ability to feel empathy for people we've never met, living lives we couldn't possibly experience for ourselves, because the book puts us inside the character's skin.'
Ann Patchett
If you have any fiction books in good condition that you would like to donate to the collection, please bring them into the library at any time.
Here are some feel-good fiction suggestions for you to fall into this autumn.
