Home Library Service
If you can’t get to the library owing to age, disability or caring responsibilities, you can still use Essex Library Services.
Home Library Service volunteers are your link to the library, bringing books and any other library items you’d like.
Friends and Family card
A friend, neighbour or relative (with your agreement) can select and collect library items for you.
