200630 | Mobile Libraries begin by offering a "click and collect" service and "staff selection"

Angarrack – Inn Car Park 16:25-16:45 | FRIDAY WEST MOBILE FROM FRI 10TH JULY

Current government guidance says that libraries can start reopening from July 4th and we are planning to have our mobile libraries out and about from Tuesday 7th July.

Where's my nearest library?

You can view an alphabetical list of your local library to see if there is a branch library or micro library near you, or enter your postcode on the my area page.

Our Home Library Service is for anyone who is unable to use the library because they have a disability, long-term illness or caring responsibilities which make it difficult for them to get out. Home Library Service volunteers bring books and other materials to your home if you are not able to get into a library yourself because of restricted mobility.
