Visits for school classes

We can arrange visits at any time of the year on request.  Visits can be arranged to the library, or members of staff can come out to see classes in individual schools.  So if you'd like to arrange something - just email, give us a call or see a member of the children's team at Bath Library.

Please note - certain times of the year can be very busy, especially over the summer during the National Reading Challenge and in October during National Book Week,  so pleae get your requests in early!
