Liskeard Library
Liskeard Library is an original John Passmore Edwards Library, designed as a purpose-built library for the town of Liskeard in 1896, reflecting the beliefs of a Victorian benefactor and philanthropist, that access to knowledge and learning should be available to all.
Over the years, various alterations have unfortunately stripped out many of the heritage features, instead adding partitions and sub-divisions that created a complex set of rooms, some of which were previously unused.
With renovations now complete, Real Ideas opened the New Liskeard Library on September 30th 2023. Renovations have enabled a multi-purpose building, where downstairs offers access to thousands of books complimenting a much needed popular Library service. Visitors will have access to a computer to search and order any books that cannot be found at the Library.
Liskeard Library is excited to host a variety of activities and events as well as invite other organisations, groups, and individuals to host activities at the Library. Take a look at the Liskeard Library What’s On page
