Balsall Heath Library

There have been times when i’ve walked into Balsall Heath Library and been struck by a barriage of noise of screaming children.
Since computers were introduced the place certainly changed, with these seeming to be the largest pull for the more exciteable element of the local young people.
However on my recent return I found that noise levels were contained and perhaps visiting directly after school closing time is not advisable if you value a quiet Library.
I for one love Libraries and books, so I am biased but I would champion this facility as one of the best in the area as a place to sit and browse aisles of books.
Always popular with local people, the Library has seen cutbacks in it’s opening hours recently but is amply staffed and busy when the doors are open.
