Location and Access

Newton Aycliffe Library is situated between health centre and magistrates court and offers a wide range of services for you and your family to enjoy. Plans are currently under way for a new replacement library on the old Avenue School site. This will replace the present building, built in 1963, which is too small to meet the needs of the large population. Newton Aycliffe library has wheelchair access. Supernova screen reading software and a large keyboard are available.
