Newby & Scalby Library
We are once again open five days a week Mon, Tues, Wed and Friday, 10 – 5.30, Saturday 10am – 1.30pm. Your safety remains our priority. We want everyone to feel safe and comfortable and would ask that you treat others using the building with consideration as we know that many visitors wish to remain cautious. We would encourage continued wearing of face coverings and our staff will continue to wear theirs. We won’t be asking for your contact details any more but you can still use the QR code for the Track and Trace. Seating, newspapers, use of the coffee machine, computers, the magazine swap and unlimited browsing have returned. The one-way system will no longer operate but customers may still leave the library via the garden gate if they wish. Books may be returned through the library’s letterbox if customers wish.
Our Clubs have also returned and are as follows –
Tuesdays Pop in & Play, 10.30am – 12 noon, Free, Term Time Only
Card Sharps, every Tues. 2.00-4.00pm, Free.
