Be a local hero! Nominate a group you
care about to receive a library!
In 2013, Bord Gáis Energy received over 250 nominations from organisations
across Ireland in their Donate a Library initiative. Now, they are giving away four libraries, one per province. Last year, they gave away two libraries to great organisations – Ballyglass Community Council in Co. Mayo and Dunfanaghy Family Resource Centre in Co. Donegal and they are planning on building on that success in 2014!
They are hoping to share their love of books and reading in a way that will make a difference within local communities around the country. So to celebrate this launch, bespoke ‘Book Nooks’ will be popping up in cities around the country where passersby will be encouraged take five and relax with a book, courtesy of Bord Gáis Energy.
You can nominate a group or organisation you are part of, or one that you
really love in your community. It might be your child’s school or a local
charity, as long as you believe they would benefit from the addition of a
library!
So get nominating!!! It couldn't be easier - simply visit HERE

Emma Walsh, Bord Gáis Energy Books and Reading Programme Manager, comments:
"This is your chance
to be a local hero and nominate a group in your community that you think will
really benefit from receiving a Bord Gáis Energy library! We’ve learned over
the years, through our backing of these types of programmes, just how much pleasure
books and reading bring to our customers and we’re thrilled to be able to share
that even wider. If you know of a school, hospital, community centre, charity
or local group that you feel passionate about and would like to share the
enjoyment of books and reading with, let us know!"
