🎉 Middlesbrough Central Library is Open! 📚✨

After a transformative refurbishment, Middlesbrough Central Library has officially reopened—and it’s more inspiring than ever!

Thanks to a £5 million investment from the Cultural Development Fund, the library has been reimagined as a vibrant hub for learning, creativity, and community. While preserving its stunning Grade II listed Carnegie heritage, the space now offers modern, accessible, and family-friendly facilities for everyone to enjoy.

🌟 What’s New?

  • A brand-new ground floor featuring a welcoming family library and learning space, alongside a dedicated adult lending area.
  • A flexible Discovery Space perfect for workshops, talks, and cultural celebrations.
  • A state-of-the-art IT suite and a new family history study area.
  • Improved accessibility with a new passenger lift, accessible toilets, and baby-changing facilities.

And don’t worry—the historic Reference Library remains beautifully preserved, with enhanced adjoining rooms to make your visit even more comfortable.

Whether you're here to explore your next great read, dive into local history, or take part in exciting events, Middlesbrough Central Library is ready to welcome you back.
