For those who are still sheilding in line with Welsh Government guidance the council will be able to deliever your books straight to your door via a delievery service that is currently being developed.

Library members will be able to pre-order titles through an online catalogue or by phoning a dedicated library phone line where they will be offered a choice of subjects and genres

Staff will then provide an allocated time slot for library members to collect their books from one of the three town centre libraries or arrange for them to be delivered if required.
