Room Hire Charges for groups hiring the library
The library can be booked by groups for meetings and other activities at times when it is not open to the public. Please note that our only meeting spaces are the public areas of the children’s and adult libraries. It is sometimes possible to hold separate meetings in each section.
Please email enquiries to Janet Crowther: janetc.greenhilllibrary@gmail.com
