The move means the library changes its name and is now situated in a new space in the leisure centre, equipped with improved computer facilities, an on-site café and increased parking.
The library, which opened in its new location on 24 September, is one of two partnership libraries in the borough to managed by the charity Inclusion Barnet.
This initiative gives residents with project ideas the ability to attract funding from the community, council, businesses and foundations through one portal. The partnership raised more than £500,000 for good causes during its first two years, with more than 1,000 people getting involved and pledging money.
