South Lanarkshire Libraries provide a comprehensive library service to the people of South Lanarkshire. A network of 25 branch libraries offer a wide range of books, CDs, DVDs, spoken word and blu-rays for you to borrow. Specialist children's collections are supported by a programme of events for children to encourage reading and literacy.
Our vibrant, busy libraries will provide you with author recommendations, reference services and a space to read or study.
Visit our ActiveIT computer learning centres to use the internet, email friends or family, or even pick up a new skill.
