Cost of Living Support | How we can help you


We're here to support you with managing the cost of living.

Visit any of our libraries in Kent for a warm welcome. Browse our shelves, catch up with friends online with our free computer and WiFi access, or meet new people at one of our friendly social groups. Share a story, visit our cheery children's areas with little ones or pop along to one of our regular events.

Exhibition | Fantasy: Realms of Imagination


Enter a world of fantasy with our free exhibition

Inspired by Fantasy: Realms of Imagination at the British Library, supported by Wayland Games, this Living Knowledge Network exhibition explores the rich diversity of the fantasy genre.

Alongside the display that toured our libraries over that last few months, we’re offering recommended reads, events and free access to author talks and panel discussions available to watch on demand from the British Library and libraries from across the UK. Look out for a new exhibition, coming soon!
