Spaces for hire

Many of our libraries offer fantastic spaces which can be hired by the local community.

From small, cosy rooms for group meetings, to larger conference facilities and lecture spaces for business purposes, find a hireable space that suits your needs. Presentation equipment is available at our larger libraries.

  • Bookings are for a minimum of two hours
  • 12.5% discount for bookings of eight sessions or more – upfront payment applies

Bookings outside of library opening hours may attract an additional charge to cover staff costs.

We reserve the right to apply a charge to private tutors who are undertaking tutoring within our public library space. Please contact a specific library for their charges relating to this.
