Public Lending Right (library borrowings)

Jay Mandal

I've just been notified that I'll be receiving over £50 in respect of last year's Public Lending Right (payment for library borrowings). The Dandelion Clock brought in a massive £34!

So if you want to help a fellow Talkbacker, but don't want to shell out for the book, ask your local library to get hold of a copy for you.

You can read excerpts from all my books at

And check if your county is in the list for submitting for assessment, as not all counties are. If you have a book that might do well in a library, it might be worth donating a copy.
Well done Jay.

Thanks, Carol. Don't they do it on a rota basis?

I'm not sure how long each bit lasts. A few of the writers at our club, who produce/d books on local history, walks etc, only started to increase their PLR payments about five years ago when Nottinghamshire came onto the list.

Just noticed - The Dandelion Clock was borrowed a staggering 568 times.

Good news, Jay!
