A new purpose-built library has opened its doors in St Budeaux.
Built on the site of the old library in Victoria Road, the new library is a modern, flexible space with a wide selection of books, free computer and Wi-Fi access, a dedicated children’s space, meeting rooms for hire, a garden and events and activities for all ages.
Deputy Council Leader Pete Smith said: “This is absolutely fantastic for the people of this area and the city. We’ve created a first class library which is bright, open and welcoming for residents. It has more books, more computers, a fantastic children’s library and lots of space to sit, read, study and use the free Wi-Fi.”
The site will eventually be part of a mixed development that will also include 24 new affordable homes, four of which are wheelchair accessible.
