The Children's Library
The Children's Library welcomes children of ages 5 to 11 and provides the possibility to explore and enjoy our world of knowledge. You'll find our library has a wide collection of books, atlases, magazines, comics, computer games and learning activities. Whether you are just discovering books for the first time, studying for school exams or searching for something new to read, you'll feel quite at home here.
You'll find the Children's Library on the Ground Floor of the library building on the same level as the Information Centre and the General Library. We believe that it's important for children of all ages to be able to access information, ideas and opinions from a wide range of sources, helping them to build confidence, develop good learning habits and an appetite for knowledge.
We aim to support the needs of children ages 5 to 11 and have worked hard to assemble a beautiful collection of some 17,000 books. Our wide variety of collections include story books, reference books, encyclopaedias, early learning books, board books for our youngest readers and a collection of pop-up books. You will also discover comics and magazines, online learning, book readings and in-house creative programmes. In addition, we are proud to offer a variety of collections for children of determination such as talking books, Braille books and sensory books.
Child safety
Whilst we are committed to the highest standards in protecting and safeguarding the welfare of children using our services, we must remind parents and guardians that they are ultimately responsible for the supervision of their children.
