Central Children's Library

It is free to join Sheffield Libraries, and your child can join from birth. We offer a range of books for all ages, from picture books to read with your child through to comics and chapter books for more confident readers. We also offer a selection of children's board games. Books and graphic novels for teens and young adults are available in the main Central Library upstairs. All items are free to borrow. 

We also have computers with access to the internet, which children can use with permission from a parent or carer.
