The Tuanku Bainun Library (PTB) at the Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris (UPSI) campus in Perak, which will turn 100 next year, continues to be a resource centre for scholars, writers, linguists and well-known national figures.
PTB has a collection of over three million literary works, including e-journals and e-books (that can be accessed by researchers and the public). The library is the only department in UPSI that was inherited from the era of the Sultan Idris Training College (SITC) administration since 1922.
WE do like a good thriller or murder mystery in Worcestershire. It appears that local book readers like nothing more than to settle down with a novel with a twisty plot if the list of most popular library books in 2020 is anything to go by. Worcestershire County Council has issued its annual top library book list, and, as usual, it makes fascinating reading. The number one choice across the county was Lee Child’s
Past Tense, one in the famous Jack Reacher series. That was borrowed a total of 443 times, closely followed by by Mark Billingham’s
Their Little Secret (thriller) with 426 issues.
