Our usual opening times may be affected over the Christmas/New Year period. See our festive opening hours HERE. 

We aim to provide a high quality library service which meets the needs of local communities and supports lifelong learning and also to deliver high quality advice, information and assistance to members of the public on a range of Council Services.
