Eynsham Library News

Smart Thinking 3 Oct 2016 A self-service scheme is being introduced at Eynsham library, with access to services and study space at evenings and weekends.

Eynsham Library reopens today after a comprehensive refurbishment (part-funded by the Friends of Eynsham Library). This includes new layout, new shelves and an increase in stock.
