Children library

 

All our libraries provide books, audibooks, videos, DVDs and CDs for babies, toddlers, children and teenagers. An adult will need to borrow these on their behalf.

 

Children under the age of 8 must be accompanied and supervised at all times by a parent, carer or suitable responsible adult over the age of 16.

 

Every year your local library invites children aged 4 to 11 to join their summer reading challenge, where they can read 6 books over the summer and win prizes.

 

Baby and toddlers

 

Find support and ways to help your baby or toddler’s development at your local library.

 

Baby and toddler rhymetime

Our Baby and Toddler Rhymetime sessions are a chance to share rhymes and have fun with other families. Search our Kids event category for more information about rhymetime.

 

Bookstart

When registering your child’s birth, you will get a Bookstart Baby pack. This will help your child learn to read and develop their language skills. If for any reason you don’t receive this pack you can request it from your local library.
