The Library
The all-new Beswick Library will be one of the best in the city; it will be a comfortable, purpose-built space which uses modern technology for better services. With longer opening hours and doors open to everyone, the library will offer:
- New books, films, music, newspapers and magazines
- Bright and welcoming areas for children, teenagers and families
- Speedy self issue and return facilities
- New computers with super-fast broadband
- Free wireless internet for library members
- Community meeting rooms
As well as catering for Academy students with course-related materials, there will be an enclosed after-school homework club which welcomes local school children. The upper floor of the library will be for anyone who wants a quiet place to read or study.
If you have a Manchester library ticket, then you’re already a member at Beswick: if not, joining is free. See you in September 2010!
