SKIPTON Library will be partially closed for essential maintenance work on Wednesday, April 18, and Thursday, 19 April, for essential maintenance work to take place.

New fire detectors and a new fire alarm system are being installed, which will mean limited access to books and public computers for library-users on those days. Some regular activities have also been cancelled.
