Housed within the new East Manchester Academy, the all-new Beswick library is one of the best in the city.
With longer opening hours and doors open to everyone, the library will offer new books, films, music, newspapers and magazines; bright and welcoming areas for children, teenagers and families; speedy self issue and return facilities; new computers with super-fast broadband; free wireless internet and community meeting rooms.
As well as catering for Academy students with course-related materials, there is an enclosed after-school homework club which welcomes local school children. The upper floor of the library is for anyone who wants a quiet place to read or study. A café will be located on the ground floor .
