At any of our libraries

Your HillingdonFirst card is also your library card. This allows you to borrow books, talking books and access our fantastic online digital library.

If you're an existing Hillingdon library member, speak with a member of staff about replacing your old card with a HillingdonFirst card.

If you have not been an active library user in the last 2 years, you will need to reactivate your membership. You can do this by visiting one of our libraries and asking to join the library where your HillingdonFirst card will be activated.
