Hammersmith Library will be closing for three weeks from Monday 25 November while essential maintenance works take place.
We still have a full range of services available to residents who may be affected by the closure. Why not check out one of our many other libraries in the borough?
Works are set to finish on Monday 16 December. In the meantime, residents can still drop off any books they have had issued in our collection bin outside the library, or at any other library in the borough.
Any books due during the closure period have been automatically extended through until December.
Our other libraries all also remain open for your use, and our online library is open 24/7 for all your e-book, e-audio e-magazine and e-newspaper needs. These are based at:
- Shepherds Bush Library, 6 Wood Lane, W12 7BF
- Fulham Library, 598 Fulham Road, SW6 5NX
- Askew Road Library, 87-91 Askew Road, W12 9AN.
Hammersmith Library Access Point
For anyone who needs to get in touch with our Hammersmith-based staff, we have opened a limited services library access point on the ground floor at 145 King Street.
This library access point will be open from 9am to 5pm, Monday to Saturday, with a small range of titles to choose from. From here, you will be able to:
- pick up any reservations made before 25 November
- return any books you may have already borrowed
- browse a small selection of books we have on site
- speak to our staff.
We hope to have the library back up and running as normal by 16 December and apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
