Redditch Library is a library in the centre of Redditch, United Kingdom. Constructed for £550,000 (£3.3 million adjusted for inflation) and opened on 24 January 1976, it is the town's main public library, having been purpose-built to replace the former building on Church Green. It is the second-largest library in Worcestershire and attracts up to 12,500 visitors a month.[1] It was renovated in 2009 for just over £1,000,000.[2] It is currently in the public consultation phase of a project, led by Redditch Borough Council, to demolish the building and relocate the service to Redditch Town Hall.[3][4]
