We apologise but services will be limited to book returns and new book loans along with photocopying and scanning.  Sorry but we will not be offering any other services at this stage.

Library members will still be required to use hand sanitizer on entry and wear a face covering.  This is likely to remain the case until all restrictions have been removed.

LIBRARY CLOSURE

LIBRARY CLOSURE

As the Government has announced a 3rd National Lockdown the Library will unfortunately have to remain closed.  We anticipate remaining closed until the Government lowers London to Tier 3 restrictions.
Updates on our reopening will be announced once the Government provides further guidance.


BOOK RETURNS

We will not charge any fines on late returned books during this period.  If you are able to return your books please use the book drop to the left of the front door

DONATED BOOKS

There are a variety of books in crates at the front of the library.  They are a mix of old library books and books donated by locals.  Please feel free to take one of these books with no obligation to return it.  You may if you wish donate some books of your own to the collection.

Thank you for your continued support.

LIBRARY CLOSURE

Terry Uncategorized

It is with regret that we have to announce that we will be closing once again as the Government has placed all London Boroughs into Tier 3 restrictions as of 00.01 on Wednesday 16thDecember 2020.  Our intention had been to re-open on Monday 4th January 2021 following the Christmas and New Year holidays.  Unfortunately in all likelihood we will remain closed until such time as the Government lowers London back to Tier 2 level restrictions.  Updates on our re-opening will be announced once the Government has provided further guidance.   

DONATED BOOKS

During the Pandemic we have left some crates at the front entrance containing a variety of books.  These are a mixture of our old books and ones donated by members of the public.  Please feel free to take one or more books from the selection available with no obligation to return them.  You may if you wish donate some books to those available.

We apologise for any inconvenience and once again thank you for your continued support.

Stay safe
