The comics@orchard is quite a crowd puller for the library. It's one of the ways for us to bring non-users to the library. And also those who haven't been to the library for quite some time. While they are in the library browsing through the comics, we hope that they'll also move on to reading our extensive fiction collection or the rest of the collections in the library. Anyway, do drop me a mail if you do come by library@orchard. I'll be more than glad to bring you on a short tour of the library. Oh yah. The comics@orchard is quite a crowd puller for the library.

If you want to have food like the locals do, try "Hawker Centers" in the HDB housing estates (cabbies should be able to recommend a few). Have a good trip. Night Safari is an excellent choice.

Your library sounds fantastic, especially comics@orchard! Hi Isaak,

Besides visiting the tourist attractions, do you plan to visit some of the public library branches? Have a look at the new National Library building as part of your tour itinerary. And maybe <a href="http://www.nlb.gov.sg:80/CPMS.portal?_nfpb=true&portlet_7_5_actionOverride=%2FIBMS%2FLibraryBranch%2FlibraryDetails&_windowLabel=portlet_7_5&portlet_7_5branchCode=OCCL&portlet_7_5commonBrudCrum=library%40orchard&_pageLabel=CPMS_page_visitus_CL">library@orchard</a> in the heart of Orchard Road shopping belt as well (where I'm based).
