Since closing in October last year the library has been given a new roof and a larger floor area. Up-to-date technology, including self-issue machines, internet-capable computers and a large-screen TV, have been installed to help meet 21st-century needs.
A highlight of the new facility is teens' space stocked with bright comfy beanbags, Playstation, X-Box and television.
Students will have the chance to study in soundproof spaces equipped with comfortable seating while those with disabilities will enjoy easier access.
There are also improved amenities, display space, lighting and computer catalogue facilities.
Even littlies have their own area with caterpillar-shaped bookshelves and a picture book trolley, low enough for small children to get books out of.
