Spread the word

TAGlines is for you to tell us, your friends and other interested readers about what's going on in the area; what is for sale or wanted; and the more readers we have the better the chance of getting the word out.

TAG( Taglines) est un blog mis à votre disposition pour que vous partagiez avec nous, les lecteurs de Tag, (qui sont principalement Anglais pour le moment et vivant dans le Midi-Pyrénnées,) ce qui se passe dans la région, ce qui se vend, ce qui est cherché, ce que vous faites et pensez.

NB some email services have strict spam/junk filters and TAGlines doesn't always get through, but you can add it to your "white list" and make sure it gets through.

About Me

bergerie: I have had a life with books. Moving from Middlesbrough to Manchester Public Library then Bolton, where I ran a Branch Library. My interest has always been children's and illustrated classic literature so when I started my bookselling career, this is what I decided to specialise in.I think my background in Libraries and the knowledge I gained there set me on the path to becoming a very successful bookseller and I gained first membership of the PBFA [Provincial Booksellers Assoc.] and then a couple of years later was admitted to the prestigious ABA [Antiquarian Booksellers Assoc.] Having the courage to exhibit at Book Fairs in the USA made a huge difference. We moved to France in 2001 and have never regretted that decision
