February 13, 2019Dementia friendly concerts at Paisley Arts Centre
February 13, 2019A new chapter in the story of Paisley’s library services has begun.
The temporary home for Paisley Central Library opened this week in a new building next to The Lagoon Leisure Centre.
The move has been made to allow the refurbishment and creation of a learning and cultural hub at Central Library, on Paisley’s High Street, when it re-opens in 2021.
The work is part of an investment in Paisley town centre venues by Renfrewshire Council to support a wider push to use the town’s unique cultural and heritage assets to transform the area’s future and bring new footfall to the town centre.
In the meantime, the usual services of book lending, free computer and internet access, Bookbug sessions and children’s activities are available at the library facility at The Lagoon.
Opening hours are 9am to 5pm on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday and 9am to 8pm on Tuesday and Thursday.
Councillor Lisa Marie Hughes said: “There are exciting times ahead for Renfrewshire cultural scene in general and Paisley library service in particular.
“Once work has been completed at Central Library, the people of Renfrewshire will have a fantastic literary, cultural and social facility we can be proud of.
“And while that work is on-going we’ll have the same library services available at the Central Library’s temporary home, so no one misses out.”
