Libraries of Sanctuary are all about stronger, resilient communities, positive communication between sanctuary-seekers, migrant groups and local communities, free internet, information, access to local and services and agencies, and opportunities to join in the activities of local support organisations. They promote respect and welcome to sanctuary-seekers, and bring communities and cultures together.

Cambridgeshire Libraries were recognised as Libraries of Sanctuary in August 2023.

Anyone living, working, visiting, or studying in Cambridgeshire or neighbouring counties is welcome to join the library. This applies even if you just want to access our online resources. Membership is free, and you’re welcome to join the library without any documents. To find out more about the range of resources they offer to support new arrivals into our communities, please visit their Libraries of Sanctuary information page.
