New look for Nuneaton Library
Nuneaton Library in Church Street is getting a makeover soon, with lots of improvements and a ‘new look’.
Customers can find out about the changes planned at two Friday coffee mornings on August 6 and September 10 - both from 9.30am to 11.30am in the library.
Several Warwickshire County Council libraries are being improved and updated this year. The plans for Nuneaton follow a successful makeover recently completed at Bedworth Library.
Work at Nuneaton is likely to start in early Autumn and details of any temporary arrangements necessary will be announced nearer the time.“This is really exciting for Nuneaton Library,” said Divisional Manager David Reed.
“I hope local people will bear with us during the alterations and forgive any inconvenience caused because the makeover, once completed, will make the library a brighter, nicer place to visit.”
The improvements for Nuneaton include a new library layout with more floorspace and a more welcoming, open-plan feel. There will be room to display more lending stock and provide extra seating, plus a bigger and better-lit large print and talking book section.
Other features will include a new-look tourist information centre and children’s library, new magazines-for-loan section, and self-service kiosks allowing customers to borrow and return books and other loan items themselves, quickly and easily.
The self-service equipment will release staff from counter duties so they can spend more time helping customers. More will be explained at the two coffee mornings - and everyone is invited along to find out more.
