Library services in the
district are provided by Suffolk County Council. Anyone can
use a Suffolk library just by walking into it. You can use the
enquiry service, read books, newspapers and magazines
completely free of charge.
The Libraries Direct website (new window) gives
you access to a range of online services such as the
library catalogue, and lets you renew or reserve items such
as books, DVDs and CDs.
To borrow items from the library and to use the subscription
services on the website you need a library card. Getting a library
card doesn't cost anything, and there are no age limits. Just go to
your nearest library with some official identification which shows
your name and local address and you will get a library card which
you can use right away.
You can also complete the online form on the
Libraries Direct website (new window).
Children and young people up to the age of 16 need an adult to
act as their guarantor.
