Service Disruptions

The accessible toilet on the first floor at Worksop Library is out of order at the moment. Apologies for the inconvenience. The ground floor accessible facility and our changing places room are all available as usual.

Important update: Kirkby Mobile West Route 2  (which was due to run on Wednesday 18 February) has been rescheduled to Thursday 26 February 2026.

One of the lifts at Mansfield Central Library (the lift taking customers from the library on floor 1 to the Cafe on floor 2) is currently out of order whilst awaiting repairs after being serviced.

The lift taking customers from the ground floor reception area to the library remains in full working order.

The Cafe will remain operational during this time.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

We are pleased to announce that Sutton-in-Ashfield Library will be operating fully from Wednesday 18 February 2026, as the issues with the heating are now resolved. 🎉

This means that the library will be reverting to its regular opening hours, and no longer closing at 1pm, and that customers will be able to access the library as normal. Our regular events will also resume, including Places of Welcome, and Rattle, Ryme, and Roll.

If you have been contacted regarding alternative venue arrangements for any other events, please assume that those alternative arrangements will remain correct unless you are informed otherwise.

Please note that Registrars will continue to operate their service from Mansfield Central Library until the end of the month.

Thank you for your patience and understanding, and for bearing with us while we tried to do the best we could for our valued staff and customers under the circumstances.

We apologise for the inconvenience caused, and we are so pleased to be opening Sutton-in-Ashfield Library at full capacity once more.

This is a prior notice that Mobile North will not be in service on Friday 27 February and Monday 2 March.
