Knowle Library

Located above Broadwalk Shopping Centre in Knowle, this library is curiously placed. Unless you’re mega observant, or had done a bit of library research prior to your outing, it’s unlikely you’d acknowledge Knowle Library’s existence whilst shopping in the area. Needless to say, this is one of the quietest libraries I’ve had the pleasure to experience in Bristol. Although the obligatory (and oh so annoying) children’s story times still operate here on certain mornings, the place is otherwise a peaceful study haven. The usual array of computers are available for use here, and DVD’s can be hired for a pound. The library also owns an exhibition space which it can let out to customers. As for books, here you will find an extensive range for all ages and interests.
