Wem Library
The very first rate publicly funded library was opened in Campfield, Manchester in 1852. Our local library in Wem is therefore relatively new but offers a comprehensive range of services and holds events on a regular basis.
If you are unable to get access to Wem there are the mobile libraries which could help.
Libraries have come a long way since 1852 and there is now the opportunity to join the e-library.
