Leigh Library is a library in Leigh, a small coastal village in the Rodney district north of Auckland. It has a 5.0 rating on Google.
A good library does much more than lend books. It offers a quiet place to read or work, free internet and computers, audiobooks and films, and programmes such as children's story time and holiday activities. A small village library is often a real community hub, where staff know regulars by name, and it is part of the wider Auckland Libraries network, so one library card works at any branch and books can be reserved from elsewhere and sent to Leigh. Regulars know that opening hours in small branches can be limited, so it is worth checking them before you visit, that after-school hours are busiest for children and that staff will help with searches, printing and online forms. Leigh is known for its marine reserve at Goat Island, so a visit pairs well with a day by the coast.
For anyone in Leigh and the Mahurangi coast, Leigh Library is a free local place to read, borrow and meet.
