Deadline extended for overdue books

PEOPLE who have overdue books loaned from Loughborough Library have been given an extension to when they bring them back - due to the sheer volume of books out there.

Loughborough Library has been shut for months for a refurbishment, but reopened on Thursday, January 3.

A Leicestershire Libraries spokesperson said: “There are an incredible 8,000 books out there due back so we’ve extended the loans until January 10 - because even we might struggle with that many!”
