Longer opening hours will soon be available at three of our libraries 📚

Between the end of this year and early next year, we're introducing Open Plus technology at Dickens Heath Library, Hobs Moat Library and Balsall Common Library, making them more accessible and flexible community spaces.

Cabinet Member for Communities, Cllr Wazma Qais (pictured) said 💬: “Open Plus will extend opening hours and give people choice of how and when they use their local library, fitting visits in around work, school, families and other commitments."

Staff will continue to be available during normal opening hours to provide advice and support! 🙌

The project is grant funded by the West Midlands Combined Authority.
