Children and Young People at The Library
All Glasgow Libraries have bright colourful children’s areas where you can find lots of great books, magazines, DVDs and CDs for loan, plus computers for free internet access and CD-ROMs.
Glasgow Libraries are very family-oriented and offer lots of activities to get everyone involved from special holiday events to regular events for children from toddlers to young adults.
Joining the library couldn’t be easier simply pick up a Membership Form from your local library and have a parent or guardian sign the form after you have filled it in.
Our library staff will be happy to show you around the library or why don’t you speak to your teacher to arrange a class visit for a tour of the library?
