A LIBRARIES unlocked introduction event at St John’s Library was dubbed a huge success with over 65 people signing up for the scheme.
Attendees were able to learn how Libraries Unlocked worked and shared their ideas with staff on ways to make the most out of the service.
Libraries Unlocked uses new technology to offer extended access hours from 8 am to 8 pm from Monday to Saturday.
Members will be able to use a range of services including borrowing and returning books, utilising free library computers and Wi-Fi, accessing dedicated study spaces and hiring meeting rooms.
Worcestershire County Council’s cabinet member for communities, Coun Marcus Hart, said: “Libraries are at the heart of our communities across Worcestershire, and I’m very pleased that we’re developing new approaches that work around our residents’ busy lives.”
