Hollyhill library is situated in Hollyhill Shopping Centre. The library is located on the ground floor, with large shop-front style windows. The library is compact and easily read; the children's area is on the left of the desk as one enters and the adult area beyond the desk and to its right. Because of the large shop-front windows, the front part of the library gets large amounts of natural light. There is reasonably generous provision for homework and for reading on site.
