Falmouth Library
Falmouth Library is managed by Falmouth Town Council, supported by Cornwall Council.
Cornwall’s Libraries are now able to offer book services again by welcoming you at the door but not any further just yet. Order your books online, then go to your nominated library to collect them from the lobby or entrance. You can also return items, with no fines until 30 September. Regular library activities such as story-time sessions will have to wait until we can fully reopen. They can’t go ahead until it is safe. Please keep an eye on our social posts and publicity.
Please note that not all services and facilities are available so please check with your local library before making a special journey.
All online services continue. These include:
If you’ve been longing for a real book in your lap, come back to us from Monday 6 July, opening days and times will vary. Please see opening times below.
Those who use the Information Service for payments and council enquiries should continue to use:
- paypoint facilities
- online options
- telephone options
These have been in place over the last three months. The Information Service remains closed. The click and collect service is only for library books.
The majority of Cornwall’s libraries will continue to waive any overdue charges until further notice, but please check with your local branch to confirm.
Click and Collect from 6 July 2020
Please check Falmouth Town Council website for up to date opening hours.
