Facilities
Visitors to the Island are most welcome to use the Library.
All the literature you would expect, albeit on a small scale.
The Channel Islands section is particularly popular with Visitors wishing to discover more of the history of Alderney as well as the other Channel Islands, there is also a delightful Children’s section.
We have a special section of audio books on tape and CD, with the added fortune of being linked with the Guernsey Library to loan new volumes.
Residents and Visitors can join the Library for a non-refundable charge of £10.
