A library will be closed for at least eight weeks as works to replace its roof are set to get underway.

A temporary closure at Kings Langley Community Library, in The Nap, will begin on January 29.

Work will then begin to replace the building’s roof, during which time the public will not be able to access the building.

The earliest potential reopening date is Monday March 25, according to the library, although it added that this will be subject to weather and availability of supplies.

Members will be unable to return books through the letterbox during the closure.

In a notice shared on the library Facebook page yesterday (January 5), it confirmed that temporary arrangements for the return or renewal of books will be posted there during the next few weeks.

Kings Langley Community Library is run by Hertfordshire County Council in partnership with Kings Langley Library Community Volunteers.
