Library Information Points

If you’re affected by cancer you may want to know there’s somewhere you can go to find answers. Somewhere where someone can help you find answers to your questions, whatever they may be.

The Macmillan information points across Lanarkshire can help you find information you need on living with all aspects of cancer as well as signposting you to the nearest Macmillan drop in centre.

You can find them at:

Biggar Library

Bellshill Cultural Centre

Chryston Library

Cleland Library

Cumbernauld Library

Fairhill Library

Forth Library

Greenhills Library

Hamilton Library

Larkhall Library

Motherwell Library

Wishaw Library

More drop in services will become available as we further develop the programme. All our drop-in services areas can be used as Information Points outwith the drop-in times.
