Bookmark placed in community donations

Aprominent Millicent service club has requested a temporary halt to donations of books from the public as it is on the move again.

The Lions Club of Wattle Range Lioness usually appreciates such community donations to sell at its bookshop in George Street.

However, it is moving to the former antique shop opposite St Michael and All Angels Anglican Church.

It has been vacant for a few months and it will have a larger floor space.

All the money raised through the shop for more than a decade has gone towards grants to charities, causes and community groups.

Thanks to the generosity of donors and buyers, tens of thousands of dollars have been raised and the book store has become a tourist attraction in its own right.

Arguably its most famous customer was Adelaide broadcaster Peter Goers who purchased a dozen books when it was located in Davenport Street in 2016.

After being a pop-up stall at some Geltwood Markets, the book store has had four other bricks-and-mortar homes.
