Speechless.
“So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.” We bid a sad farewell to John Smiths Ucc today. Thank you for 11 years of sheer joy. The pleasure of escaping into your serene world will remain with us always, a treasure-trove of literature, academic texts and quirky items. Most of all the warm, friendly and creative staff, you will not be forgotten for elevating us to another level. We hope that with this ending, you will swiftly find your next beginning. What else is there to say - we wish this was fiction but alas the world seems intent on a relentless march away from the simple pleasure of browsing for books.
