Belsize Community Library

Founded in 1937, Belsize Community Library has been a fun and proud part of the Belsize Park community for decades. In 2012 we were saved from being closed down, and taken over by the Winch, where we have flourished as a community library. Our shelves are stocked with everything from the latest bestsellers to timeless classics, and our cosy reading nooks provide the perfect spot to lose yourself in a great story.

But we're more than just a place to borrow books - we're a community of bookworms! Join us for one of our monthly book clubs, where we discuss the latest page-turners over coffee and snacks. Or create whatever you can in our Wednesday crafty afternoons. With free Wi-Fi and a diverse selection of magazines and newspapers, we have anything for those studying their dissertation or just need a place to wait out the rain. We welcome everyone in the local community and beyond!
