Drivers with a Blue Badge can use limited on-street parking spaces at Leeds Central Library, where there is no public car park (libraries.leeds.gov.uk). The library’s published opening hours are Monday to Wednesday, 10am-6pm, Thursday, 10am-7pm and Friday, 10am-5pm (theleedslibrary.org.uk), so a nearby pre-booked space is useful when arriving during those periods.
