Themajor project to refurbish Hastings Library is nearing completion and the library will reopen to the public at 10am on Friday 2 March.
The interior of the library in Claremont, Hastings, has been completely refurbished with new furniture, more computers, free Wi-Fi and improved toilet facilities.
The improvements will bring the Children's Library, formerly based in nearby Robertson Passage, into the Brassey Institute. The library will host children’s activities including Code Clubs, Rhymetime and Storytime.
Adults can join IT For You to develop computer skills or ask for help in a Computer Buddy session. There will be a wide range of books to borrow and reference information available, as well as DVDs, and health, wellbeing and reminiscence resources.
Public computers provide free access to the internet, training courses, online reference materials, research programs for family history, and the Learning Services computer suite has been completely upgraded, providing opportunities to improve literacy, numeracy and computer skills.
The temporary library in Robertson Passage will close at 5pm on Saturday 24 February to enable stock to be moved into the new library.
During the move, from Monday 26 February to Thursday 1 March, library services will be available at Hollington or Ore libraries.
