We reckon we can remember our childhood Book Weeks better than most Christmases.

For some of us, we're reminiscing this week about the excitement of donning a witch's pointy hat and pretending to be Hermione Granger for a day.

Others are dashing across to Spotlight in between writing stories to pick up last-minute materials, as we make costumes for our own children.

City of Launceston Council have come up with a delightful way to celebrate this week of all things reading: pop-up libraries in public spaces.

People are encouraged to borrow, read and return the books in these mini-kiosks any time, free of charge - or why not leave a favourite book of your own, to deliver its magic to a new pair of eyes?

Find the little libraries at Civic Square, the Brisbane Street Mall and the Quadrant Mall.
