Stromness Library
Stromness Library is situated at the bottom of Hellihole Road,
in the building it has occupied since 1905 when it was gifted to
the library service by Marjory Skea (or Corrigall).
We have a wide range of fiction and non-fiction titles available
for loan as well as books on tape, music CDs and a bright, well
stocked childrens section. We also have a reference collection,
housed upstairs in our cosy reference room, and a fascinating collection
of old editions of the Orcadian newspaper which are available for
study upon request. In the main library you will find an up to date
selection of local and national newspapers and magazines covering
a wide range of subjects and interests.
If the book you want is not available we offer an inter library
loan service through which you can borrow books from libraries throughout
the country. More information...
Free internet access is available on a pc and by WiFi connection.

times please select Opening times from the Library
services drop down menu.
