It may be small, but Southchurch Library packs a lot in! A real sense of community has kept this library a favourite in the local area. Come and explore...You'll be surprised what you find.
A great library. Staff are always friendly and helpful. Important to remember libraries are community spaces too. So the demise of books or otherwise (hello vinyl records, a case in point) places like this have groups from sessions for kids to a book club, and knit & natter. Use your local library. Just a short walk away from Southchurch Park.

Friendly and helpful staff a very well laid out public space. A great library with plenty of space to read/study and computer screens for public access. Meeting rooms are ideal for group training and activities. WiFi access works well etc. Coffee shop next door and parking close enough. There is an outdoor cinema screen I assume used in summer months
