Green Libraries week
Retro Games Week
Available in timed slots from 10am to 4pm:

In partnership with That Retro Place, our Caterham libraries are hosting an exciting week of retro gaming!
We will have games suitable for ages 7 years up to adult. It is suggested that children have a guardian to supervise as some games may be inappropriate for their age.
These events are free, but booking is required. We have 2 consoles available bookable in 1 hour slots. This can be done at the staff desk in both libraries or by sending an email to the branch at Caterhamhill.library@surreycc.gov.uk or
Caterhamvalley.library@surreycc.gov.uk.
Customers must have a library card to book.
