Forest Hill Library

This has always been a good little library to spend some study time, or to take the children to get better acquainted with the joys of reading.
Plenty of shops opposite should you require a tummy filler. Moreover there are not bad public transport links with the 194 stopping directly outside.
Swimming baths next door too!
My only issue is if you decide to drive, parking spaces are always limited and you may find yourself subject to a parking ticket.

As a volunteer here I can confirm that it is a very clean, well stocked and friendly environment. They have a lovely selection of books to choose from and a range of computers for your easy access. The library has a wheelchair accessible entrance and clean public toilets, and helpful, friendly staff willing to help. It is very child friendly and has various children/baby groups and book clubs.

It's the loudest library I have ever been in! The staff are talking to each other across the stacks discussing about going home early! There is currently a child running up and down the slope into the children's section screaming! Neither the staff or her relative is putting a stop to it! However it is a nice building, which is clean and tidy!

Great community library, especially the children's section at the back. Loads of books for all ages and a nice space for little ones to explore with beanbags, a mirror tunnel and little tables and chairs. Top tip - make sure you register your child for their own library card, they don't have to pay overdue fees!

Well, I tried to print 15 before they close and apparently the system is locking down at 1545... sad, very sad excuse... getting books is ok... but not printing... it doesn’t make any sense for me. 2019 and still using the old excuses

Great Library. The WiFi is fast, big desks with lots of plugs for your laptop. Perfect for studying. Also lots of public computers if needed. It’s a public library so anyone can go in.

Good library which has been a big part of the local community for a long time. Could do with a lick of paint + expansion of the study areas. Good place to sit and get some work done.

Helpful and friendly staff. Good general stock for a small library, covering different ages, demographics and needs. Good quiet place to read or work. Wifi of course.
