Gateshead Central Library

The Gateshea Central Library is quite a large building which provides many services to the public.
Firstly, books. There is a very wide collection of fiction and non-​fiction books for both adults and children. I have never went and not been able to get the books I have been looking for.
There is also quite a few computers available, however, you must be a member of the library to use them. Signing up is easy though. Just have some forms of ID with you.
They also offer DVD and CD renting which has all of the new releases as well as some older titles at a cheaper rate.
There is also a small art gallery, a reference library with photocopier, and upstairs is the Caedmon Hall where small productions are held. Finally there is a small café which sells light snacks and refreshements.
All in all a nice place to go with alot of facilities for people of all ages!

and it will tell you if the library do stock it and
ask if you want to reserve it for when it is returned.
In the dvd section they have a request book that
you can use to request new /​old dvds and even
boxsets then every month they look through and
order a set amount and if it is yours that is
chosen then they also give you a courtesy call

On top of all this they also have numerous
computers which you can use to access
the internet free of charge, and even print things
