The map shown here is not accurate - you would do better to search MLL High West Street on Google maps.

Our Multilingual Library is opposite the register office of the Gateshead Civic Centre in the building that was formerly The Gloucester Pub.

We will always need volunteers to help run the library - library experience helpful but not essential. Knowledge of different languages is also very helpful. Hours would be 11-2:30 or 2:30-6, days - Monday-Saturday.

Where possible we pair up native English speakers with people learning the language so that as well as carrying out the library work, volunteers also have the chance to improve their conversational English.
