“Super access libraries” will be launching in Surrey later on this year as part of an aim to make best use of libraries by giving residents access at times that fit in with busy lives.

The programme will first be introduced in Horley, before second and third phase rollouts across the county.

The council says the move will open up Horley library for an extra 46.5 hours per week.

The rollout of the whole project is expected to be completed by the end of this year.
