As high numbers of our library members and volunteers are elderly, some with underlying health conditions, and in view of the escalating situation regarding Covid-19/Coronavirus, the library management committee feel it is prudent to be proactive. The library will therefore close temporarily with effect from Wednesday 18th March. We were open today and tomorrow when a full library service will be available to enable  you to borrow books to enjoy during this interim period. This decision has not been taken lightly but your welfare is extremely important to us and we hope to be back with you very soon. Meanwhile, follow the guidelines to keep you and your loved ones safe. Your library volunteers

Check out our photos to see what’s been going on in the library during 2016:

Fawdon Community Library aims to introduce newly released books at  regular intervals throughout the year, but relies on fundraising, grants and donations to maintain our supply. Limited storage space prevents us from accepting large quantities of donated books, but we are always grateful to receive any recently published books that you may read, and no longer need.

While local libraries are reducing their opening hours, Fawdon’s volunteer run library has extended opening times and has recently initiated a mobile service to a local care home.

Pop in and see us at  Fawdon Community Library – membership is free. You can find us within Fawdon Community Centre on Fawdon Park Road – just 2 minutes away from Fawdon Metro station.

Our opening times are:

• Mondays 11am to 5pm
• Tuesdays 10am-2pm
• Wednesdays 10am-1pm
• Thursdays 2pm to 5pm
• Fridays 10am to 1pm
