Kilburn Library set for £765K major revamp

A £765k upgrade of Kilburn Library has been approved by Brent Council’s Cabinet. The major refurb will create a more flexible space, improved library garden, as well as a new study zone and IT suite. Proposals, that still need to go through planning, will create a dedicated event and learning space, which could be used for community hire as well as activities to support employability, digital and language skills, and health and wellbeing initiatives.

Councillor Fleur Donnelly-Jackson, Cabinet

Member for Customers, Communities and Culture, said: “The improvements to our much-loved Kilburn Library will make it even more attractive and accessible for residents, as well as placing it front and centre of our borough-wide cultural offer.” The council has invested over £1 million in refurbishing libraries across the borough, helping make them more welcoming and accessible for residents of all ages.
