Children and young people are invited to participate in dlr Libraries Lego Competition 2022, a perfect project to work on this Summer and be in with a chance to win some prizes!

We have four age categories as well as the 'Crowd Favourite' choice. Team builds are also accepted, so feel free to buddy up with a sibling, family member or friend to build and to enter!

Libraries are no longer just places to borrow books or study, they are also creative and engaging community spaces where people can gather, relax, read or explore resources, join a workshop and enjoy socialising with their local community, maybe even make friends along the way. Libraries run bookclubs, writing groups, craft circles and many other workshops and classes throughout the year.

The local public library has also become a technology hub in the community as people use the free internet/wifi, use PCs and printing services and access a range of services online such as training courses
