Happy Birthday to Jane Austen, born #otd in 1775.

'It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a library in possession of a good Jane Austen biography, must be in want of some googly eyes.' 👀

A huge thanks to Ed James who popped into Hawick Library with his fantastic crime novels. His DI Rob Marshall mysteries are set in and around the Scottish Borders.
All available to borrow now, pop into the library or search online, reserve and collect t.co/E8cp7Al5tc
