The Screen Guide

Frances O’Brien, devout Catholic and panic disorder sufferer, runs a very tight ship at the Middleton Interactive Learning Centre, a modern outer suburban library. Despite the chronic vandalism, the dysfunctional staff and her own particular challenges with the ever-growing Muslim community, Frances wears her Head Librarian’s badge with relish. No more so than during the heady period leading up to Book Week – precisely the moment her life suddenly takes a turn for the worst. Frances’ ex-best friend from childhood turns up wanting a job in her library.
