Currently using track and trace. They have multiple stations for hand sanitising and you put the books into a box for them to clean. Filled out form for track and trace and put into a box then pencils once used are also kept separate for sanitising.

Great looking however lacks up to date non-fictional books, this area needs better educational books to support students education. This is a vital resource in an already impoverished area, the council should really do more to preserve this iconic building and fund it more, instead if running it into the ground with a view to sell our public assets to developers,

The library has a brilliant selection however it is lacking any up to date non-fiction and technical publications such as modern programming, which I would consider critical with the direction the current curriculum and indeed the world is headed. However, the library does have a decent selection of kids books & DVDs, along with an adequate IT suite.

My husband and I went on the tour by Sheena yesterday and we thoroughly enjoyed it - unfortunately we had a prior appointment and had to leave just before the end and did not have chance to thank her. So a big THANK YOU - we thought you were very knowledgeable and opened our eyes to lots of current uses for libraries - we are not currently members but will rectify that at the earliest opportunity - thank you so much - Lynn and Phil Williams
