Published Date: 02 December 2008
Lancashire Evening Post editor Simon Reynolds was on hand to officially open the newly-revamped library at the University of Central Lancashire.
He was joined by Michael Ahern, UCLan's director of learning and information services and Patrick McGhee, deputy vice chancellor (academic) for the ceremony at St Peter's Square.

A total of £650,000 has been invested in refurbishing the library, providing 100 more computers.

Thousands of books have been archived to make room and plasma TV screens showing cultural events from around the world have been placed alongside newspapers in the library's cultural exchange area.

Hmmm..a newspaper editor opening a building dedicated to the pursuit of knowledge, the prevention of ignorance and the open pursuit of free thinking ideas without prejudice. Surely there's not an irony in that?

And he's allowing you to comment on his website, Jack. Surely there's not an irony in that, either...

I've never really understood the meaning of irony. I'll look it up now.

Here's a much-needed glossary.

Archived = thrown in a skip

Cultural exchange area = place to spill coffee in your borrowed Uclan laptop

Plasma TV screens showing cultural events from around the world = Bargain Hunt
