Keen readers now have a wider book pool to swim in...

Rochdale Revisited Volume 1. A Town and its People, by John Cole
Keen readers frustrated at not being able to find their chosen book at the local library now have a wider book pool to swim in... as Rochdale and six other Greater Manchester library networks have set up a shared online catalogue, giving library members access to 2.8 million books and other library items.
Specific books in any of the participating collections can be searched for.
Oldham, Manchester, Bolton, Salford, Stockport and Trafford have all joined Rochdale in the shared scheme, and Tameside Council will join later this year.
The only proviso is that when a book is borrowed it must be returned to the same place.
