It is free to join Sheffield Libraries. All our libraries offer a broad range of fiction and non-fiction books, which are free to borrow for both adults and children. Your library card also gives you free access to e-books and e-magazines via the Sheffield eLibrary. 

All our libraries have computers for public use, with access to the internet. We also offer printing and photocopying, for which there is a charge, and scanning, which is free.
