Children's Library
The children’s library has recently been refurbished and was re-opened in December 2021. Our aim was to make a cosy yet exciting space for children to explore, and also to provide plenty of places where parents and carers can curl up and share a book with their children.
Our fantastic new children’s library has a jungle theme and provides flexible spaces for storytimes and class visits to take place, as well as child-sized seating for children to make the library their very own.
With a wide range of stock - from board books for babies, picture books and older fiction to dual language stories and non-fiction - there really is something for everyone.
Come and let your imagination run wild in the heart of the city.
We have baby changing facilities, a nursing room and a café in the library.
There are lots of activities and events for children at Central Library. See a selection of what’s available on Library Live or check the Loads To Do listings.
