From Thursday 5 November 2026, Highfold and Brackenmoor libraries will be staffed until 7pm every Thursday, after people asked for more evening opening.
Staff will be there to help with joining, borrowing, computers and printing. Homework club for ages 8 to 14 will run from 4pm to 6pm.
Adult members can still use Open+ to get into these libraries from 8am to 8pm every day, when staff are not there.
