Our Community Library


Located in Farnham Common, our small community library supports nearby areas including Farnham Royal, Hedgerley, Stoke Poges and Wexham.


In October 2011 Farnham Common became one of the first libraries within Buckinghamshire to transition to Community Library status, where all library services are organised and run by local volunteers.


Residents use the Farnham Common Community Library in the same way and on the same lending terms as any Buckinghamshire library.

Library members can continue to use the Buckinghamshire Libraries reservation service and be linked into a wider library network with access to 6 million books in 200 libraries across the South East through the consortium SELMS.


Management of the library


The Farnham Common Community Library is run entirely by local volunteers.

The Farnham Common Community Library is a UK Registered Charity - Number 1189181

The Management Committee of the Charity manages the operation of the library. Friends of the Library are the supporting membership of the Charity and appoint the charity’s Management Committee (Trustees)
