The High Sheriff of Hertfordshire Liz Green kicked off her tour of 46 Hertfordshire libraries with a visit to Tring.
On Tuesday, January 9, the High Sheriff headed to Tring as the first stop on her tour, entitled ‘The joy of reading and the impact of low literacy’.
Her tour of the town included a visit to Tring’s volunteer-run Local History Museum, a quick stop at the Information Centre and historic Council Chamber, and then on to Our Bookshop, an independent store run by Ben Moorhouse, who also organises the Tringe Comedy Festival and Tring Book Festival.
The High Sheriff then headed to Tring Library, where she joined staff and Tring Mayor councillor Nigel Nutkins in the children’s section.
The High Sheriff posted on social media after the visit: “Thank you to Tring Town Council for an excellent visit. Tring Museum explains the history really well and is open on Friday and Saturday, run by volunteers.
“Tring Information Centre had more than 4,000 visits last year, Our Bookshop is an absolute gem, and good to see the Council Chamber.”
