Suffering during the Second World War, the building which accommodates both the World Museum as well the Liverpool Central Library, the refurbished book-heaven opened its doors after the 1941 blitz firebombs to offer a world of reading like never before! The ethereal building itself makes for a good impression and the interiors of the Library only adds to the charm. The café and the small nooks and corners are perhaps the best combination for visitors who are looking for a good time reading.

The first floor is a common favorite that will take you back in time when books were treasured and loved. A must for every reader, writer or simply someone who wants to see a Library with a difference!
