Learn, Grow, Connect and Thrive with Merton Libraries
There is so much to see and do in our libraries, they are a colourful hive of activity, buzzing with people of all ages and backgrounds. Each day is different, but what stays the same is what they offer.
Libraries are not only a gateway to knowledge and culture, but they create opportunities for learning, literacy and creativity. They offer people resources they often do not have in their own home - endless books, free activities and events, technology and ways to support their health and wellbeing.
With support from Arts Council England and LibraryOn, Merton council commissioned a short film that showcases some of the fabulous things on offer at Merton libraries.
