Further info

Membership is free for people of all ages, and every library has a wide range of stock – everything from books and audiobooks to magazines and ebooks. There are public PCs, printing facilities and free WiFi, plus lots of regular and one-off events for both children and adults to enjoy.
To discover all the exciting services and events available (groups and times vary between locations), visit Hertfordshire Libraries or call 0300 123 4049 to find out more.
All our libraries provide a warm space and a place for everyone so if you're feeling chilly at home during the winter months, you'll always be welcome. We can't always promise a cool space in the summer as some of our buildings are older and do not have air conditioning, but we can guarantee and fun and free reading experience for children with our annual Summer Reading Challenge.
