In each of Halton's four libraries the books are split into fiction and non-fiction. There is a wide choice of stories and novels. To make it easier to find the title or author you want, the books are arranged by category. We have romance, adventures, thrillers, science fiction, horror and general fiction. So whatever type of fiction you like to read we should have something for you.
Books providing information on a wide variety of subjects from aardvarks to zebras are in stock too.
We provide books to help with studies, hobbies or just for general interest. Large print books are also available for loan. In addition, there are temporary special collections of books in each library. These might be promoting a particular author like Stephen King or be about a subject, such as travel. At Widnes Library there is a large and well-used collection of books about railways and transport.
