May photography competition winner!

The theme for May was 'The street where I live' and we were really pleased to see some entries from our local area. Congratulations to our chosen winner Matthew Pinnington, who lives locally, for his atmospheric shot of a backlit tree in front of what is now Lister Fisheries. This building used to be the old Lister Drive Baths which, like The Old Library and the original Lister Drive School which once stood next door, was designed by architect Thomas Shelmerdine. What an impressive road Lister Drive would have been 100 years ago! Look out for Shelmerdine's distinctive style in other libraries across the city, including  Everton, Toxteth and Wavertree.  Thanks to Matthew for capturing this piece of history - check out his winning photo and some of the other entries below.

The theme for June is 'Childhood memories'. As always, all entries are welcome but we'd love to see some from L13 and surrounding areas. Send your entries to info@old-library.co.uk by 25th June for the chance to be our next winner, featured in our 2020 calendar and in with the chance to win our overall prize of a camera.
