Wearing a facemask is now a personal choice. Kindly remember we do have vulnerable people visiting the centre, so please be considerate of others when you visit. 

The Exchange is host to Blackheath Village Community Library, part of the Lewisham library consortium (LCC).

We are a small library, coordinated and staffed by local volunteers. We have a varied catalogue of adult, teenage and children’s fiction, academia and textbooks.

You can drop off your library books in the crate by the front door.
