We are thrilled to announce the launch of three new area-specific groups, each dedicated to celebrating the love of libraries in our local communities!

• Carlisle Library and surrounding areas

• Whitehaven Library and surrounding areas

Joining these groups will provide you with a chance to see what's happening at your local library, engage in meaningful discussions, and share your own library-related information with like-minded individuals. 🤝

Let's make these groups vibrant hubs of knowledge, imagination, and shared experiences! 🚀

The “Autism? Your Questions Answered” book collection has just got bigger!

As we celebrate World Autism Acceptance Week 2023, we are excited to announce that over 200 new books have been added to our dedicated autism collections across the six main libraries in Cumbria (Barrow, Carlisle, Kendal, Penrith, Whitehaven & Workington).
The books are a celebration of all things autistic, which are relevant to people on the autism spectrum and others who would just like to know more.
All the books can be requested via any library in Cumbria, so why not take a look?
