Facilities
We’re now open for you to drop-in, browse and borrow – and you don’t need an appointment.
You can use a PC too. Please use our booking webpage to book a session. You’ll need your library card number and PIN to log in.
Study spaces are available, on the first floor.
Book a space in the reading room at York Explore.
We have a welcoming cafe serving a variety of food and drink.
We want everyone to enjoy our libraries again and feel confident when using them.
So when you visit us please remember:
- Respect other people’s need for space.
- Protect each other: Sanitise your hands and choose to wear a face covering in busy spaces.
- Please avoid visiting us if you are feeling unwell
And, above all, be kind to each other and our staff.
