The notice on the door stated: “Due to a power cut, this building is temporarily closed until further notice. We are so sorry for any disappointment and inconvenience caused. Local libraries are open as normal.”
The libraries service added on social media they hoped to re-open this afternoon. Sheffield Council this afternoon confirmed it has now re-opened.
