Mowbray Gardens Community Library

What a great find!! This place is a lovely little safe haven…a diamond in the rough! Such a welcoming space that’s well resourced and staffed. Plenty of parking with two spots for electric vehicles. The library was clean and airy and totally took you out of the area it’s placed in. Very welcoming to all age groups and full of lots of useful information.

I'm a community worker and I brought a group of new library users here for a first visit. The staff at MCL couldn't have been kinder and more patient. MBL is also a lovely, light and open space, well used by the community with lots of different groups and activities on offer. Exactly what a modern community library should be!

Small but pleasant and usually quiet library. Plenty of books to choose from, and the option to order in books from other libraries if they don't have what you want. Computers and Internet access are available, and everything is on ground floor so disabled access should be easy.

Nice library and plenty of facilities like computers for Internet, children's toys, toilets, audio cds and of course books. Unfortunately ruined by kids using it as a youth club, talking loudly, taking phone calls and generally messing around. Not to mention strange foreign men hanging around chatting not even using it as a library.

It's a nice little library which offers a wide range of services and aims to develop kids into reading at an early age. The draw back is the teenagers running around treating it like a youth club and showing the staff no respect.
