EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Brian Robinson, we are transported back to the 1990s at Stockton Library, where librarians have embraced their love for literature in a truly remarkable way. Dressed up as beloved characters from well-known books, these dedicated individuals have not only brought joy and excitement to their workplace but also sparked the imagination of all who visit. At the heart of this enchanting scene is Jill Campbell, who has transformed herself into the iconic Noddy. With her vibrant red hat and cheerful demeanor, she embodies the spirit of childhood wonder that Noddy himself represents. The attention to detail in her costume is evident – from his trademark blue outfit to his ever-present yellow taxi – making it a delightful challenge for anyone attempting to guess which character she portrays. What makes this photograph even more special is that it captures an event held by the library itself: a competition open to the public. Visitors were invited to test their literary knowledge and try their hand at identifying each librarian's character portrayal. This creative initiative not only encouraged reading and literacy but also fostered a sense of community engagement within Stockton Library. Robinson's snapshot serves as a nostalgic reminder of how libraries can be magical places where stories come alive through both words on pages and passionate individuals like these librarians who bring them vividly into our world.
