Great Barr Library

Really accessible building, buttons to open doors, accessible toilet, ramped access from Birmingham Road and the car park (located at the end of Readers Walk) 2 accessible parking spaces closest to the entrance have been tarmacked, very easy to push wheelchair over with plenty of room to manoeuvre between vehicles. Staff keep obstructions inside to a minimum and are happy to help reach objects as well as answer library related queries. Free hot drinks are available during opening hours (these vary day to day) and there are regular activities for children and adults, most of these are approximate for people with sensory issues. Great Barr library also offers "Library Plus" for members who want to access the building from 7am to 10pm. I love being able to pop in any time to choose books or return them. Even the library can be busy and noisy after school, after 7pm it's likely child free and the free adults present are glued to computers, leaving the bookshelves and comfy seats for bookworms living their childhood dreams ❤️📚
