Carlisle Library is set to reopen its second and third floors this week.
The temporary services offered on these floors had to be closed to users due to the installation of new air-handling units.
Work has been completed and the floors will reopen tomorrow, Tuesday January 27, at 10am.
The second and third floors can be accessed via Level 3 of The Lanes car park.
Refurbishment of the first floor remains ongoing.
During this temporary arrangement, users can carry out book browsing, borrowing, returns, renewals and have PC access.
The fully refurbished library space is scheduled to reopen this spring.
This £3.3 million project, funded from the Government’s Carlisle Town Deal with additional investment from Cumberland Council, aims to revitalise Carlisle Library state-of-the-art learning and community hub.
Other ways to access library services are:
- Library Links at Morton Manor, Denton Holme, Harraby, Carlisle West, Longtown, and Brampton, offer book borrowing, PC access, and WiFi.
- Digital services via the BorrowBox app.
- Adult Learning services will continue as normal at the Civic Centre, Carlisle.
- Local history resources are available by appointment at Carlisle Archive Centre. Details at www.cumberland.gov.uk/libraries-and-archives
