The rate of infection in Lambeth remains high so from 19 July we are keeping certain precautions in place to keep you, other library users and staff safe.
When using our services, please follow our Covid-19 guidance for visitors to council buildings, continue to wear a face mask and make an appointment.
This will help in keeping our community safe.
More information
- A self-service library, with Lambeth librarians on site every day for up to two hours to help users, join members and answers enquiries (please check the staffed hours before visiting, as these are subject to change)
- Regular reading groups and children's storytimes sessions.
The relocated Waterloo library will continue to provide a wide range of books for adults, children and teens, DVDs, eBooks and digital magazines and have access to computers and Wi-Fi, study space, and scanning and printing facilities.
