The Pop-Up library in Rossett is moving location

We are looking forward to our first pop-up library visit to Hwb yr Orsedd/Rossett Community Hub on Friday, November 15. This follows four successful years at the Golden Lion and we are very appreciative of the support of landlord Allan Parrington and his staff over this time. We will visit the Hwb once every four weeks, from 10am-11.15am on a Friday. The pop-up library operates on an order and collect basis. Borrowers can contact the library to order books/audiobooks by email and phone or you can also access our online catalogue at www.wrexham.gov.uk/libraries and request items to be collected at the pop-up library. You can also access a wide range of online resources including e-books and e-audiobooks. Latest news including book reviews, library activities and author visits can be found on the Wrexham libraries social media channels. For more information or queries please contact: Lloyd or Huw on 01978 667286 / ML@wrexham.gov.uk

Book sale at Cefn Mawr Library

Cefn Mawr Library is holding a special sale of adult books which have been withdrawn from stock. There is a huge range of titles for you to choose from and this is a great way to bag yourself a copy of your favourite books. The sale will take place throughout November.

Did You Know…?

Did you know our library service has a dedicated 'behind the scenes' small team of staff who make sure that all of the new books that come into our libraries are ordered, receipted and processed ready for you to read. They work incredibly hard and get very little recognition as most customers never get to meet them. We couldn't do without them!

Cysgod y Mabinogi by Peredur Glyn

"Hon oedd y stori nad oedd neb I fod I'w ddarllen. Dylai hi fod wdi trengi yn fflamau'r goelcerth. Mae rhai straeon yn rhy bwerus..." Ers milenia mae cwlt wedi bod wrthi yn y cysgodion un paratoi ar gyfer eu seremoni olaf, un fydd yn newid y byd. Mae'r awr bron a chyrraedd. Noor yw'r Gwyliwr. O'i thy unig ar y clogwyn. Ei dyletswydd yw gwarchod glannau Cymru rhag hunllefau'r gorffennol. Nawr mae'n raid iddi ddewis pwy yw ei ffrindiau, pwy yw ei gelynion – a pha mor bell mae hi'n fodlon mynd er mwyn stopio'r cwlt …

Mae'n cydio o'r dudalen gyntaf tan y diweddglo mwyaf epig a welodd llen Cymru erioed.
