LIBRARIES these days are bright, hightech and welcoming places.
Last Friday, Lochgilphead library demonstrated just how far these establishments have moved from the old-fashioned vision of fusty places filled with dust-covered books and spiky librarians guarding the silence like cardigan-wearing rottweilers.
The aroma of cream cakes and coffee met library visitors as staff embraced the spirit of the Wear it Pink campaign in support of breast cancer charity Breast Cancer Now.
