📚 Thirsk Community Library:
– Powered by Volunteers, Serving Everyone
Since 2017, Thirsk Community Library has been proudly run by local volunteers supported by North Yorkshire Council. As a registered charity (No. 1169352), we exist for one reason: to support our community.
But we’re so much more than books:
💻 🖨️ Free PC access - plus affordable printing and photocopying
👧👨 Regular activities for children & adults - from story times to workshops
📱 🖥️ Digital Buddies – friendly help with your IT, smartphone, or computer challenges
🧵✂️ Thirsk Repair Café - Friends of The Earth – bring your garden shears (and more) to be sharpened/fixed and saved from the bin!
Every visit, every conversation, every borrowed book helps keep this vital community hub alive. By choosing us, you’re not just using a library—you’re investing in the heart of Thirsk.
👉 Drop in or give us a call on 01609 534 589.
There are six, free, library car parking spaces, clearly marked on the left as you drive in off Chapel Street. These are shown by the red marker on the map below.
Additional parking is available nearby in Thirsk Market Place, a short walk away.
Beware, parking elsewhere at Meadowfields is on private property monitored by ANPR cameras.
We work hard to make visiting the library as easy as possible, including:
Accessible toilets
A lift to the upstairs area
Level access throughout
Hearing Loops
Home Library delivery service
Please let us know if we can make your visit easier - our volunteers are always happy to help.
