The Public Library’s agenda this Black History Month is to encourage the practice of research. To wit, they are effectively handing out research assignments to both adults and children.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your tremendous support of Cruise To Run Caribbean 2011 which sailed to the islands on the Caribbean Princess from January 23 to 30, visiting St Thomas, Tortola, Antigua, St Lucia and Barbados.

Scores of people yesterday turned up at the St John’s Magistrates’ Court to get a glimpse of murder accused Nickayal “Dollarman” Blaize, who made his first appearance there.

Michael “Dollarman” Blaize has been slapped with a charge of murder in the recent slaying of his former best friend Gavia Mannix.

Police have confirmed that they have a suspect in custody for Wednesday morning’s fatal shooting, which claimed the life of 21-year-old Gavia Mannix

The bookshelves at Antigua & Barbuda Public Library are to be bumped up by about 180 publications today, when a corresponding number of cruise ship passengers each donates one volume to the institution, which will be accepted by Chief Librarian Ryllis Mannix.
