Norfolk libraries close for lockdown

Posted on by

All of Norfolk’s libraries are closed from today because of the second Coronavirus lockdown.

I was in Knapton yesterday at the same time as the mobile library. I had a chat with the driver and he confirmed that their service is stopping today. The mobile library drivers will all be working on other tasks during the lockdown.

The library service has said no overdue fines will be issued:

“Library users will not need to renew or return the items they have borrowed as all loans will be automatically renewed and no overdue charges will be applied while libraries are closed.

“Online activities will continue through the Norfolk Libraries and Information Service social media channels and via the Norfolk libraries website where customers can also borrow a wide range of eBooks and magazines.

“We look forward to welcoming everyone back when it safe to do so and hope to see as many people as possible online throughout the next month.”
