    I have walked by this building a couple times and for some reason I thought it was a theatre, but…read morediscovered I was completely wrong and it was a library. It was raining outside and I was looking for a place to duck in. I tried to look in the window to see what seating was like when I noticed that they had some souvenirs for purchase... including some items with the Magic Roundabout on it. I went in and there was quite a bit going on. It looked like there were a couple groups in and there were lots of people wandering the collection. I didn't get the chance to go upstairs, but it looks like they have quite a large collection and they have interlibrary loan (I overheard a librarian talking with a patron). There are computers around the wall of the library so people can use the internet or look up books. To the left of the entrance, there is the Tourist Information desk including a large collection of brochures and magazines for tourists for each part of the UK. There was a local section as well. Of course they had the selection of souvenirs that I saw from the outside... Swindon Monopoly, t-shirts, key chains, and coffee mugs with the Magic Roundabout, post cards, and various items for children. It is a lovely facility and seems to be well used by the public!

    This is a brand new facility that has just opened in Swindon…read more The library is spread over three levels and is spacious with a cafe and loads of computers for internet access. This library has a very good selection of books on all topics and the staff are very helpful. Was worth the wait.

    This is a small library in comparison to the new central library, but has a good selection of books…read moreand the staff are very helpful. There is a nice seating area in the middle of the library if you want to browse through some books, along with a tea and cofee machine. There are limited computers with internet access available, but the library is not very busy which means there isnt a long wai to access one of these. The staff are friednly and helpful, although there are not many of them which can mean one must have a bit of patience. There are four self service booths which make checking books in and out of the library very easy. they have a good selection of new and up to date books. Next door to Asda which makes its a practical stop on the shopping run.

    This library is on the Orbital Retail Park, otherwise known as North Swindon District Centre…read more It is next to Asda Walmart and near to other shops such as Next, Boots and Borders. There is lots of free car parking available nearby. They have a very wide range of books, CD's, audio books and DVD's to borrow. You can borrow books from this library once you have joined and if you wish to return them to another of Swindon's libraries then you can. You can also browse the library stock online and renew books online, which I find useful, as you don't always have time to get to the library when your books are due back. The staff there are helpful.
