My friend lives in the Acocks Green area, so one day while staying with her for a few days; we decided to visit the library and take a look. The building is a period listed building, so it still has all it’s traditional features which makes it beautiful to look at.
It’s not one of the larger community libraries but it’s still a nice place to go and have a read.
The great thing about this library is that because it’s not so huge; you are more likely to experience a much quieter and comfortable reading experience. I like that because in most libraries there’s a little noise and it becomes irritating, one because you lose concentration and two, you become less inclined to stay in the library.
However, this library is pretty good for noise levels; so it’s a place to visit for a quiet read.

A fairly good selection of books and fast, free internet connection to use. It’s quite a large library and can be used for various things, not just a library! Also, it is newly used in conjunction with the neighborhood office.

For all its city council public service trimmings Acocks Green Library has become a little bit of a sanctuary for me. I read a lot and have a self imposed ban on buying anymore books. So I visit my local library a lot. The staff are very friendly and helpful. I order a lot of items and everything my little book worm heart desires is usually tracked down quickly and with ease.
The library is a Grade A category building and opened in 1932. It has a lovely spacious feel inside and you can easily find a quiet cranny to read in peace.
Of course there is the usual computers and internet section but this is housed separately from the book stock. So you are free to browse quietly and enjoy the complete library experience.
