"Love Your Library Day is a marvelous opportunity for us all to celebrate the hugely important role libraries play in the heart of our local community," said Bob Constable of Midlothian Council. "The pole fitness session is a fun and interesting way of encouraging more people into our libraries, trying out all the services on offer and ultimately borrowing more books."
