Our libraries

We aim to inspire people and encourage a sense of place through libraries with books, information, learning, online access and services for every resident in spaces that bring local communities together.

All libraries offer you a welcoming, safe, clean and pleasant environment and our staff will be polite, helpful and sensitive to your needs.

There are eleven libraries and 99.8 percent of Wandsworth residents live within one mile of a branch library.
