With the country going into the lockdown again from Thursday, we expect there will be changes to the library provision too.

For all the updates about the Library Service in Kensington and Chelsea over the next month, please head over to our website, where you will find the latest information and the most recent updates related to Covid-19 and the libraries service.

We are going to continue providing you with a full programme of online events – talks, workshops and book clubs, as well as a boosted virtual offer of sessions for children and adults on our social media platforms.

We are hosting the 12th annual London History Festival in the last two weeks of November, but before that, we have some fantastic events to help you through the lockdown.

Come along, enjoy and learn with us!
