Bassingbourn Community Library

Bassingbourn Community Library Volunteers run a library of adult and children's fiction and picture books. Cafe and seating. We have a Book Trolley with second-hand books for sale.

Bassingbourn Community Library has over 5,000 books to lend, with the latest popular fiction, a large children’s section, a local history reference section and the ability to order books from the Cambridgeshire Library Service. It is open th
