Richmond Library 10th birthday quiz - winners and answers

The Richmond Library celebrated its 10th anniversary earlier this month.

As part of the festivities, we invited you all to enter our fiendishly difficult library quiz. The results are now in and the winners have claimed their prizes.

1st prize, a £20 Blackwell's voucher, being
presented to Namita Matthews by Jane Cooper



2nd prize, the Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine
being presented to Sarah Lowe by Jane Proctor
















A big thank you to Blackwell's who kindly donated these prizes.


3rd prize, a posh pen, being presented to Alex Robinson
