Join Lambeth Libraries for free and use our services
Library membership is available to all, whether you live, work or visit Lambeth. Everyone is welcome in the library, should you want to visit, use desk space, attend events and more. However, to borrow items, use our computers, or log on to Wi-Fi you will need to join the library.
Your library membership entitles you to borrow up to 20 physical items at any one time. Additionally you can borrow up to another 20 E-items (E-books and E-Audiobooks).
You can also use our libraries for study, joining a homework club, joining a book group or listening to stories and talks by authors.
Additionally, Lambeth Archives the borough's record office and local history library, is open to the public and free to use.

The Upper Norwood Joint Library is an independent library service, funded by us and Croydon Council, but is not part of either borough's library services. It is situated just inside the Lambeth border with Croydon.
