From January 2026 the music service which is based at the old Gloucester Library will be ceasing. Over the next few months we will be reaching out to potential groups who may be able to house the collection. The Local & Family History service currently based at Cheltenham Library will also be moving to the Heritage Hub in Gloucester where it will still be accessible.
More library customers in Gloucestershire will be given access to services outside of libraries’ core opening hours under plans to introduce new technology.
Gloucestershire Libraries are celebrating their achievements over the past year, which include an 11 per cent increase in footfall across their network.
Families in Gloucestershire are being encouraged to sign up for this year’s Library Challenge, to explore everything the library has to offer for free.
