Newport Library & Heritage Centre

The Library in Newport has now relaunched as Newport Library and Heritage Centre.

 

Within the refurbished library there is now a dedicated area for heritage displays on the history of the Newport and Wormit area.  On show will be objects and photographs looking at a range of topics such as transport across the Tay, local sports & leisure and the world wars.  The heritage displays have been integrated within the library to create a facility which will appeal to both locals and visitors to the area.

 

The library area has been extended and opened up to include the ex Local Services office and the whole space has been completely modernised.  The front door is now power assisted making access to the building much easier than before.

 

The library benefits from improved heating, lighting, carpeting and decoration as well as up to date shelving and furniture. A large number of new books have also been purchased and the children’s area in particular is much improved. There are soft seats where customers can relax, read a book or simply enjoy a hot drink from the drinks machine.

 

A reading group for youngsters 10-14 years old meets monthly.

 

The opening hours of the Library and Heritage Centre have improved with continuous opening on the late nights.
