South Gloucestershire Council is currently consulting on options to save money on the libraries service.
The proposals presented in the consultation will have an impact on the way libraries in South Gloucestershire operate.
We are asking everyone to suggest where changes to opening hours, for example, would have the least and most impact.
Please spare 5 minutes to fill in this consultation form and tell us what your local library means to you and how you prefer to use the library services in your area, we would really appreciate hearing your opinions.
Find out more and have your say by 10 January 2024. Either online: www.southglos.gov.uk/librarysavings-consultation or pick up a printed copy from your library.
If you register your card for our new Open Access System, and attend an induction, you’ll be able to access library facilities any day throughout the week.
You can borrow and return books and use the computers.
Please speak to a member of staff for more details.
Do you, or anyone you know, find it difficult to get to the library for books? If the answer is yes, please contact us to ask about our Home Library Service
as we have volunteers happy to help.
Our free online library is always open 24/7: eBooks, eAudiobooks, eComics, digital magazines and newspapers continue to be available for library members to download anytime - www.southglos.gov.uk/eresources has all the details.
It now also includes Who Else Writes Like?, and for children, Who Next? where you can find authors who write in a similar way to those you have already enjoyed reading. Simply log in with your library card number and select South Gloucestershire.
If you are not already a library member you can join online at bit.ly/joinLW - membership is free. You will receive an Online Membership number which will work for our digital services right away. Please enter an email address when you register for greater control of your account.
