    Welcome & thank you for reporting for duty fellow Secret Librarian. Good news, thanks to a rare sighting the Secret Library Card has been found and is now known to be hidden within the books of Birmingham's Central Library. Therefore it's now your secret duty to locate the Secret Library Card and perform the Secret Re-shelving Ritual.



    On the home page is the Secret Library Check Out Log. However, as it may have been a while since you performed your Secret Library duties the Head Secret Librarian advises you refresh your knowledge of the Secret Re-Shelving Ritual and Secret Code of Conduct before you start.


  • Moving on…

    Fellow Secret Librarian’s…word has travelled up our ranks that the card is no longer residing in Birmingham Central Library and the time came for it to move on. Whilst its current whereabouts are unknown the Secret Head Librarian sits quietly and patiently to hear where and when it will surface again in a new library.
