Every Saturday, I usually go to the wombwell library. Staff dont open the door at the time it says on the Google map and the advertise paper on the door.Staff are in, but they ignore it when I and other people are waiting or ring the bell. They earliest time they open is 15 or 2o minutes later. Yesterday, after 20 minutes of waiting, we had to leave about 9.50 am because they didnt open the door. It is happening every Saturday
Love this little place. Friendly staff, let me know when my ordered books have arrived to collect. These places must stay open, I’m doing my bit but I’m only one person. If we don’t use them, we lose them!
I really love this libary, it has a very warm and friendly atmosphere and has an excellent selection of books to choose from. If you don't quite know what you're looking for, the staff are only too happy to be of assistance! They are caring, friendly, very polite and welcoming. I use this libary all the time now as my own libary doesn't have much in the way of a selection. Would definitely recommend dropping in here if you live in the local area and if you have some spare time on your hands 😀😀😀😀😀
Many years ago I used to think this library had every book in the world, could be it's gotten smaller as I've gotten older, it has other helpful features as well as the books and in a town without a high street bank, post office or much else it's excellent to have it, not sure about the numbers but it must be kept.
Not been in since it was renovated. I was amazed at the difference in the interior. A good choice of books etc Staff very helpful
