Book Prescription Scheme

The library service is working with local doctors and mental health professionals to offer this scheme to those who want to use books to help themselves.

A list of recommended self-help books have been bought for libraries across the city.

A prescription is issued by health professionals which can then be exchanged for the book at your local library.
