The trustees and volunteers at Markfield Community Library would like to thank our customers for their patience and understanding whilst the library system was recently updated.
As of Monday 17th February 2025 the system went live and we are back to full operation with our public computers and ordering / reserving books.
If you have any ideas or comments, get in touch at markfieldlibrary@gmail.com and have your say.
We have had several new groups interested in operating from the library.
