About visiting us

Join us at your local library to find out how children can become members, how to get a class card, and to choose books to take back to school to enjoy.

We can offer fun activities, help children become confident library users, and keep you up to date about our upcoming events. And of course, we won’t let you leave without enjoying a story or two!
