Children and families

Take part in our Team Read Summer Reading Challenge Bookstart Rhymetimes and our special story time and drawing competition .

We are celebrating The National Year of Reading 2008 and invite you to join in.

We offer a wide range of services for children and families to promote the joy of reading and encourage a love of learning from an early age.

In your family friendly library you will find a warm welcome, a comfortable children's area, a variety of books, story and rhyme tapes and CDs. Space to sit, read, study or go online and surf the net.

We host regular children's story times and Baby Bounce sessions for toddlers. Our Bookstart Book Crawl scheme encourages younger readers to visit our libraries.

If you have a Young Person's Key you can hire a standard DVD for half price.

We provide homework collections in many of our libraries and our online library is a good place to start for help with your homework.

Joining the library is easy and its free.
