BOOK lovers can get the most out of their passion thanks to a new guide launched this month.

Last year readers in Warrington joined others from across the country for the national year of reading.

Reading for Life highlights the resources available that offer reading support for people of all ages in the town.

Those include free access to books through libraries across town as well as audio and IT facilities.

Clr Roy Smith, executive member for community services said: “I am extremely pleased that our libraries are building on the success of the year of reading because reading connects people, it fosters good communication and helps people learn whilst stimulating creativity and imagination which can only be a good thing."
