Activities at Fortrose Library

Afternoon Reading Group

This also takes place on the first wednesday of the month and starts at 2.00pm

Fortrose Library Profile

Library Profiles provide basic performance information for each library in the Highland Libraries network.  They are updated annually in July/August. Click here to download Fortrose Library profile document 2011-2012.


For FAQs, information about joining the library and membership forms see Your Local Library.   For more information about services available through Highland Libraries follow the links relating to internet and computer use and reference and information services.   Resources available for loan include books, audio books and DVDs.   If what you want is not immediately available you can place a request for it. 

Our on-line catalogue is available through any internet-linked computer.   Library members can place requests, check what they have on loan and renew items which are about to become overdue for return – you just need the bar code number from your library card and your PIN. If you do not know your PIN ask at your local library.

Mobile libraries operate throughout Highland.  They work to a timetable, and follow routes planned to make best use of time.   For local mobile library stops look at the routes for the Dingwall mobile library.

The Network Librarians responsible for this library are Sheena Paterson and Janet Hughes.  They can be contacted at Fortrose Library.
