Where to return your books

South Chingford Community Library is an independent organisation run by volunteers, and therefore totally separate from the other Council run Waltham Forest libraries.

Please return books borrowed from the Community Library to the Community Library, and NOT to any other library.

Please return books borrowed from any other Council run Waltham Forest library to any Council run Waltham Forest library, and NOT to the Community Library.

Thank you.

*Please note that silver and gold membership are not strictly applicable at this time as the long term future of the library is not guaranteed for that length of time. However, members wishing to pay these fees may treat them as donations to the library, in which case they will be gratefully received.
