Swansea library follows in footsteps of high-flying Swans

News that the Civic Centre-based attraction issued the eighth most items in Britain came on the same weekend the Swans rose to tenth in the Premier League with a famous draw against Liverpool at Anfield.

Figures from the Chartered Institute of Finance and Accountancy show Swansea Central Library issued over 560,000 books, CDs and DVDs from April 2010 to March 2011.

Other statistics show more than three-quarters of a million visits have been made to libraries in Swansea since April this year.

The most issued book so far this year is Worth Dying For by Lee Child and the most issued DVD is The King's Speech. Adele's 21 is the most issued CD so far in 2011.

But thousands more people are now being encouraged to visit their local library as part of a National Libraries Fortnight campaign that's ongoing until Monday November 14.

The celebrations are based on the theme of the London 2012 Cultural Olympiad programme which inspires creativity across all forms of culture.
