A HOST of literary figures joined bookworms to celebrate the 100th anniversary of a popular library.
Novelist turned scriptwriter Catherine Johnson visited Crofton Park Library, Brockley Road, Brockley, to mark its centenary.
Mrs Johnson spoke to pupils from Crofton Park School about her work, before the children settled down to hear some entertaining yarns from storyteller Sandra Agard.
The library has also joined forces with nearby schools to donate hundreds of books to schools in Grenada, which were badly hit by last year's hurricane.
Lewisham Mayor Steve Bullock, who attended the celebrations on Friday, paid tribute to the library, saying it has "enriched countless lives" during its hundred years.
