Excellent local library

I visit Horsforth Library at least once a week. I sometimes take my two year old grandson who loves it. Plenty of children's books with a dedicated seating area. The staff are so polite and helpful I never hesitate to ask for help.

Horsforth Library

A modern library in which staff are very pleasant and helpful. At the entrance of library there is a ramp with a gradual incline but once inside the library, the library is situated all on one level. The library offers a wide range of books with a variety of genres. The library offers free wifi to library users and there is a free software on the computers called Board-maker, although you must book to use Board-maker. The library computers are free to use and some computers are touch screen with large keyboards and mouses.
