Libraries are supporting local residents though the cost-of-living crisis with free services for all. Barnet libraries offer extensive opening times and high quality resources to borrow as well as FREE WiFi and computer access to members.

Libraries are available for reading, study, and leisure activities. A range of independent activities for adults, children, and families to do whilst spending time in a library will be coming to libraries soon.

The Libraries events programme provides a range of free and low cost early years activities, school holiday events for children and Conversation Cafes and Reading Groups for adults. The Creative Communities Programme at Colindale library is providing a wide range of cultural events too.

Each Barnet library is setting up a cost of living information point to signpost residents to a range of resources, including the Barnet Council cost of living support. Libraries are working in partnership with BOOST, to deliver Advice Drop-ins offering financial guidance in selected libraries.
