Regular opening hours have resumed in our Libraries.

So come in, sit down, read a book, use a computer, research your family history and relax.

It’s not just books, take a look at everything on offer from IT support to assistance with learning to read.

Numbers will be limited to ensure we are keeping to social distancing, your safety is our priority.

Volunteers are a valued and central part of East Sussex Libraries. Volunteering allows you to meet new people, learn new skills and give something back to your community.  This volunteering week we wanted to take the time to tell you a little about the roles we have on offer; and to give the volunteers themselves a chance to reflect on what volunteering for the library means to them.

"I'm so happy that I can give back to my community that helped me when I needed it"

"It's not understating things to say volunteering for the Library has been a life changing experience"

Midnight’s Children is both comedy and tragedy, blending the real with the surreal as an enthralling family saga unwinds against the backdrop of a postcolonial India. A stunning story, rich with vibrant images and delightful characters.
