Welcome To Dudley Libraries Online

Please be aware that we are experiencing IT issues at present which are causing problems with the library catalogue. We are continuing to try to find a solution to this but apologise for the inconvenience this is causing in the meantime.

Dudley Public Library Service is committed to providing a service which is open and accessible to all.

We have libraries spread across the Borough, a home library service for residents unable to get to a library for themselves, as well as a Local History and Archives service. We offer a range of services which includes free wi-fi internet at all libraries.

Stourbridge Library remains open during the Stourbridge town Centre re-development.

Review of the Month

Our review this month is for "White Bones" by Graham Masterton, and was submitted by one of our customers.

"Another great novel by Mr Masterton. Bones are excavated dating back to 1915, all women but by who and why? Well written novel and a page turner. Highly recommended".
