Surrey
Library News
Here is a link
to surrey Library pages, I am fairly certain most library providers will be providing
the same sort of service so if surrey is not your local service just search your
LA. https://www.surreycc.gov.uk/libraries.
From here, the following 2 links will take you to activities
and information for young people and for adults:
There are a number of resources available so that, although
branches are closed at the moment, the library is still accessible online for staff,
students, their families and carers.
Below are a few examples, all are free to use. There
is also a link to join the library online. The Library Information
Service can be contacted for more detailed advice if necessary on 01483
543599 or e-mail at libraries@surreycc.gov.uk.
