Home Library Service

The Home Library Service is for any Bexley resident who cannot use their local library. This free service is for those who are:

• Blind or partially sighted
• Suffering long term illness
• Elderly
• Unable to get out to a library
• Disabled
• Recovering from an operation
• Unable to carry heavy books or talking books
• Carers of adults or children
• Experiencing mental health problems
• Restricted to their home for religious reasons
• Unable to go out without help

Once you are a member, volunteers will visit you each month with a new selection of books or talking books. We will arrange a regular day and time with you during your application.

How to apply

You can apply in person or someone can apply on your behalf. To get started:

• Call 020 3045 4565

We are always looking for volunteers to help with delivery of this service. Find out more on our Volunteering Page.
