We are so sorry, we have had to close the Library due to COVID-19
We had hoped to keep the Library open for longer, as we know how important books are to so many people, particularly at present.
We had also hoped to give you some notice before we were forced to close.
However, following Boris Johnson’s statement on Friday 20 March we felt it was necessary for us to close with immediate effect.
We apologise to all of our customers who did not get the opportunity to stock up with books before we closed.
Return dates have been extended, and will continue to be extended as and when necessary, and
no fines will be charged.
The County Library Service is not currently accepting reservations for stock throughout the closure period. Any existing reservations will be satisfied when libraries re-open.
They do, however, have many online resources - eBooks, eMagazines, eNewspapers and eAudiobooks.

Due to the current uncertainty Cambridgeshire Libraries has cancelled its order for the Summer Reading Challenge physical materials, so even if we are able to reopen before September the Challenge will not take place in its usual format. The Reading Agency has, however, prepared a Digital Summer Reading Challenge.
The theme for the digital challenge platform and marketing campaign will remain as “Silly Squad”. The “Let’s Get Silly!” campaign will start on 1 June leading up to the launch day on Friday 5 June.
The digital challenge platform, sillysquad.org.uk will include a safe sign-up process, a personal profile area where children can set reading goals, review books, view book recommendations and access guides to e-lending.
There will also be a forum to chat to friends, play games, download and print activities, as well as family activities with rewards and unlockable content to keep children and families engaged throughout the summer months. The platform will be FREE for children and families to use.
