LSaH service criteria

We use the following criteria to make sure we are supporting the needs of Birmingham residents.

To be accepted as a Library Services at Home customer you will need to:

  • be a Birmingham resident with a Birmingham postcode
  • provide an adequate reason for needing the service. This includes:
    • disability
    • illness
    • mobility
    • frailty
    • carrying and lifting issues
    • carers who are unable to visit their local library due to individual circumstances

The Library Services at Home team will discuss your application with you.

We understand that your personal circumstances may mean you are not always housebound, for example, your mobility may be better on some days allowing you to leave your home.

We welcome customers to still use their local library as part of special family or friend visits.

If you are not sure if you meet the criteria, or would like to know more, email us: Library.Services.At.Home@birmingham.gov.uk
