Reviews
Having been a frequent visitor to Dunfermline in the past, I was excited to visit this new Library/Gallery. There is one section of the building that is devoted to the history of Dunfermline and holds many fascinating artifacts. There are huge glass windows, set up with seating, so one can just sit and enjoy the view.nnOne thing that I noted was a stand along a wall that held portable chairs. One can merely take a seat and set it up anywhere on the floor in order to relax while reading through displays rather than having to stand the entire time. Very clever!nnThere is a timeline along one wall that features the history of the city, and a clever hologram display at the entrance of the upstairs gallery that gives a synopsis of certain characters in history that are connected with Dunfermline.nIn addition to featuring the weaving history, there is a military display that includes personal stories of inhabitants of Dunfermline that went off to war, and the hardships that the city's people had to endure.nThere is also and interesting and informative display of the many contributions of Andrew Carnegie world wide.nAnd, this is all in just one side of the building. The other side holds a huge library. There is a cafe in the building as well as a gift shop. And toilet facilities conveniently located on every floor.nThere is also a special children's section with hands on displays.nnThis truly is a very unique experience and one well worth visiting on a trip to Dunfermline.
The library museum was impressive with well displayed captivating artifacts properly explicated. The interactive features were awesome and entertaining.It has many lounges, sofa and seats to chill and relax, even to enjoy beautiful scenery of surroundings from the inside looking out.nThe place also housed a library, museum, gallery, cafe and gift shop, all in one place. Moreover, the Abbey and Palace, Abbot House and Pittencrieff Park are all situated conveniently nearby within 5 minutes walk of each other, in the city centre. Visiting Dunfermline top places of interest has never been easier. It is therefore a must do.
Favourite place in the city - The museum is free and amazing, lots packed into a small space. The library is beautiful and large. Staff are lovely. A safe and welcoming space to sit and work, or relax. Love it
A total gem of a place. Friendly and helpful man upon entering explained the exhibits. The museum section was brilliant, a wee step back in time with plenty to see and do. The photo exhibition with photos of the people of Dunfermline was really brilliant too.
Took time out of work to use the printer at the library, paid for parking nearby to be told I can't use a computer without ID or my library card. I really don't see the problem with looking up my details on the computer for the sake of printing one document. I even remembered my 20p coin to print as the last time I tried to print I was told it was cash only.nnVery disappointing and frustrating, the staff make you feel like you're an idiot. Only public printer in dunfermline, not bothering again.
