The Green, Chingford E4 7EN
We have had to make the difficult decision to close the below libraries
- Higham Hill
- Hale End
- Lea Bridge
- Wood Street
- Chingford
- Leyton
- Leytonstone
Walthamstow Library will remain open to deliver essential services such as death registrations, parking visitor permits and benefits and council tax support. However, you can access these services online by following the links.
This decision means that library staff can now go on to support our essential services.
We have made a number of changes to our online and home delivery offer so that our library service can support our residents at this challenging time.
People will be able to join a library online without needing to visit, we are increasing home deliveries and all late fines will be waived for the next three months.
