What's ON

We’ve made some big changes in the background here at OnFife Libraries and moved over to a new, shiny library system.  From our new online library catalogue you’ll be able to easily see what you have out on loan and renew anything you want to keep a bit longer. Our previous online catalogue is no longer live so if you had it saved as a favourite or bookmark on your device then please change it to new link. You can place reservations for books and see where you are on the waiting list for really popular titles. And it’s just a nice place to browse through all the gorgeous book jackets and pick your next great read.  It’s the best bookshelf in Fife and it’s all free!

We are a dedicated warm space. Providing a warm and friendly welcome to support anyone who needs help through the cost of living crisis.

At St Andrews Library you can select books, use public access PCs and other offerings such as photocopying, printing and collecting hearing aids batteries.

Overdue fines

Good news – we are waiving overdue fines on books. You can return your books to any OnFife library, it doesn’t have to be the branch you borrowed them from.

It’s all going ON at St Andrews Library. A bright, modern airy space, which still maintains many original features such as stained glass windows and high ceilings – it’s not hard to see why the building is such a popular community resource.

With weekly BookBug sessions going on – we suggest you pop along if you thought that libraries were all about books (of course we have a marvellous selection of those too!).

We are here to stretch the knowledge and imagination of the people of St Andrews and beyond.

Did you know St Andrews Library has picture rails that can be used by community groups or commercial artists?
