Caldicot Library is celebrating 25 years of providing great books, community spirit and support, this year. To mark this special milestone, Monmouthshire County Council will be rejuvenating the Community Hub building in which its based. The refurbishments include new flooring, re-painting and the creation of two new community rooms, making the space ready for its next quarter century. 

Councillor Catherine Fookes, the council’s Cabinet Member for Equalities and Engagement, said: “I’m delighted to confirm this refurbishment to refresh the Hub ready for the celebrations later in the year and will benefit the community of Caldicot for many years to come.”

For this work to take place, unfortunately it will be necessary to temporarily close the main Community Hub building from Thursday 9th June 2022 for approximately six weeks. During this time there will be a pop-up Hub in Caldicot’s TogetherWorks, which will include access to some council services and the ability to return library books and collect reserved items.

During the closure library members can access a wide range of books and magazines digitally. For more information please visit www.monmouthshire.gov.uk/community-hubs-libraries/digital-downloads or customers can visit the pop up hub in Caldicot TogetherWorks for help accessing the range of digital services usually provided at the Hub.

Every effort will be made to ensure that the refurbishments take less than six weeks allowing the Hub to reopen as soon as possible. Caldicot Community Hub will be providing updates regarding the  progress of the refurbishment on its social media channels: Twitter, Instagram and Facebook under @monhubs.

The Community Hub team appreciates your patience whilst the work is taking place on the building and they look forward to welcoming everyone back into the refreshed Community Hub later in the summer.
