Hereford temporary library will be open:

  • Tuesday to Friday 9.30am to 5pm
  • Saturday 9.30am to 4pm

Services at the library

You can borrow books and other items from the temporary library in the same way as now.

On the ground floor there's a welcome desk, printing and copying, self-service kiosks, reservations and click and collect, and a dedicated children's library space.

There will also be public network computers, public wi-fi and space to sit and work. Computer use is restricted to 1 hour per day due to high demand.
