Exciting changes are coming to Kingston Library!
The library will temporarily close in March while we install new shelving and refresh the layout to create a more welcoming and accessible space for everyone.
These upgrades will make it easier to find what you’re looking for, improve how people move through the library and help us deliver a better experience for families, learners, readers and visitors.

To complete the work safely, Kingston Library will close from Monday 16 March to Sunday 22 March 2026.
The library will reopen on Monday 23 March 2026.
