I read this story a while back, but have only just found the link with which to bring it to your attention…
Avid 91 year old reader, Louise Brown from Stranraer, is about to (in fact, she probably now has) borrowed her 25,000th book from her local library! She took out her first book in 1946 and has been back for at least six more a wek (rising to 12 a week in recent years) ever since. Now that’s what I call a dedicated reader!
