A HOME clear-out has boosted the number of books at Preston Lodge High School. A neighbour of Sheena Munro, home economic teacher at the Prestonpans secondary school, was having a clearance last year before moving house. During the tidy up, she discovered a collection of old paper book tokens. A spokesperson for the school said: “These were passed to Sheena, and Sheena kindly donated them to the library, but we weren’t sure if they were ‘legal tender’ – paper book tokens no longer exist! “I, optimistically, contacted National Book Tokens HQ in London and they agreed to swap them for a £50 gift card.”
