Important information: Services during the Covid 19 situation

Our library team are working hard to implement a phased reopening of libraries as soon as we can. Not all of our services will be available and we will look a little different when we do reopen. A key priority will be making sure that a safe environment is created for you and our library staff. We will keep you updated about when services change on our information page and via our Facebook and Twitter accounts.

Update: 7 August - Order and Collect service at Bury Library

An Order and Collect service at Bury Library will be available from Tuesday 11 August. For more information please see our Order and Collect news item.
